Volunteer Opportunities
Volunteering allows you to participate in the Johnny
Appleseed community and make a lasting impact on the school
and your child's education. Listed below are just some of
the ways to participate and get involved during the school
year. We invite you to contact us to learn more.
Library
Volunteers help children select books, and check them in/out
during their visit to the library. You will also work
with the media assistants to shelve books and assist in
other related tasks. The time commitment is usually once a
week for 1+ hours in the morning or afternoon. Every effort
is made to place volunteers in time slots that coincide with
their children's visit the library.
Fundraising
Our biggest committee, Fundraising has many sub-groups that
meet throughout the year to work on various events.
Volunteers help with daily tallying of magazine orders
during the magazine sale. Our Holiday Elf Shoppe involves
the help of volunteers-whether it’s restocking items,
helping students shop, or covering the checkout table.
During Italian Night parents and teachers take shifts to
keep the pasta flowing smoothly while others relax with
their children and friends in the cafeteria Many parents
assist by sending in baked goods when needed, also. The Book
Fair comes to school for a week and is staffed by parents
who get to work with their child's class if they so
choose..The Lawn Party requires the help of many
volunteers-both behind the scenes and the day of the Lawn
Party. Parents staff games, help in the cafeteria, Pot Luck
Raffle, setup and cleanup. New this year will be our Johnny
Appleseed 50th Birthday Party in November and our “Apples
for Apples” Auction in March. Both events will need the
help of many volunteers to be successful. Help serve cake,
inflate balloons, or man the “Pin the Apple on the Tree” in
November. Join the Auction committee and have a hand in
planning this big event. We will need help with
decorations, admissions table, assistance with bidding, and
acquisitions; to name a few areas. Whether you have an hour
to spare or are able to commit for the entire school year,
no amount of time or help is too small. We are always
looking for new ideas and fresh faces. |
