We are currently in need of volunteers for the Vision and Hearing Screening at Lois Lenski. To volunteer, click on Mysignup to chaperone kids to and from the Vision and Hearing Screening Bus.  Feel free to sign up for more than one time slot.

 

We need help for 5 days, Oct. 8-12. We will also need back up volunteers.

 

You will escort small groups of kids to and from their class rooms, to the Vision and Hearing bus at the front of the school. The Vision and Hearing specialists will give you a list of classrooms and kids, and will tell you how many kids they want you to bring each time. You will walk the groups to and from the bus outside.
