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. 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.
