Volunteer and Fundraising FAQ's
Because even a little makes a big difference. Whether you have an hour a week or just a few minutes a month, your time and energy help create a stronger school community. Volunteering isn’t about doing everything—it’s about doing something. Plus, it’s a great way to meet other families, stay informed, and show your child that their education matters to you.
From hands-on help to at-home tasks, there are volunteer opportunities for everyone! You might:
-
Pitch in at events — set up or break down tables, decorate, greet families, or clean up the park and sidewalks.
-
Help with fundraisers — roll coins for the Penny Drive, collect donations, or make/buy something for the bake sale.
-
Support from home — manage our website or social media, design flyers, translate materials, or research grants and enrichment opportunities for our students.
-
Plan and organize — join a committee to help brainstorm and coordinate upcoming school events.
No matter your time, skills, or comfort level, there’s always a way to get involved and make a difference!
