Good afternoon, parents!
We are excited to begin the 2025–2026 school year and look forward to a great year ahead!
As a reminder, all parents who wish to volunteer must complete the volunteer form and watch the training video with our Family Education and Engagement Coordinator. The sooner this is completed, the sooner you'll be able to participate in school events and volunteer opportunities. This is a district requirement for all parents.
Please note that non-parent volunteers must also complete the form and training and must have a valid fingerprint clearance card or be fingerprinted.
Parents can stop by the front office to pick up the volunteer form and schedule a time with our Family Education and Coordinator to complete the training.
We truly value your support and would love to have as many parent volunteers as possible throughout the year. Your involvement makes a big difference in our students’ success and school community!
Thank you!
