Volunteers Needed
|
We Need Your Help in the School Store!!
We would like to have a volunteer every day to help in the school store during "A" lunch only.
"A" lunch is 12:30pm -1:05pm.
No real training is needed. The only duty is to stand or sit in the school store and be there if the students need anything and to deter theft when the store gets really busy and
crowded.
We Need Your help in
Special Services
We need a volunteer(s) that are willing to read articles, tests, etc. aloud to a recorder where we can download to help our students that need things read to them verbally.
We could use a volunteer a couple of days a week to do this for about an hour. If this is successful, it may grow.
Thank you!
