SJV Orientation Day Middle School Student & Adult Volunteers Needed
We look forward to seeing your family at SJV's Orientation Day on Friday, August 22nd! To make this morning a success, we are in need of the assistance of both middle school student and adult volunteers. There are several opportunities for you and your middle schooler to volunteer for a short shift and still have plenty of time to accomplish all of your family's own Orientation Day tasks (submitting forms, visiting classrooms, having school pictures taken, etc.) No volunteer assignment requires any specialized knowledge, so anyone can effectively serve in any capacity. Upon arrival for your shift, you will be briefed on anything you need to know. Volunteer hours for middle school students will count toward annual student service hour requirements.
Here's how you can sign up:
Middle School Students:
Adults:
- Click the following link to go to our invitation page on Volunteer Spot: http://vols.pt/hBkKRW
- Enter your email address. You will NOT need to register an account on VolunteerSpot.
- Sign up! Choose your spots. Don't forget to click the green SAVE button after you've chosen your spots.
Both middle school student and adult volunteers will receive an automated email reminder of their assignment. If you have any questions related to Orientation Day, please contact Gina Tegge by phone at 262-798-8088 or via email at tegge5@yahoo.com.

Faces in the Hallway
At Orientation Day, old promotional pictures of SJV students will be displayed on the walls. We have enjoyed displaying them through the years, but now need to make room for other items in closets. Please take home any pictures of your kids or your friends' kids. Yes, some of them are that old! They are FREE to you!

 Help the Ronald McDonald House
SJV Pull Tab Collection
The mission of Ronald McDonald House Charities (RMHC) is to create, find and support programs that directly improve the health and well being of children. Collecting pop tabs is a great way to teach kids about philanthropy and the importance of recycling, and raise funds to help children and their families at the same time. Some of our Chapters raise thousands of dollars with their pop tab collections. Why? Ronald McDonald Houses collect pop tabs instead of entire aluminum cans because it's more hygienic to store tabs than cans and collection and storage is easier. The program is an easy way for people of all ages to support RMHC and know they are making a difference for families and children. How much? The Upper Midwest raises approximately $30,000 a year through their pop tab program. Now that is a lot of pop tabs! Did you ever think it could be so easy to help families in need? Where? Bring all the pull tabs to the St John Vianney School Office anytime throughout the school year. Thank you for making a positive difference! |
