Committees
Think of committees as the people who actually make stuff happen. Each group tackles specific areas—planning events, running social media, raising funds—so we can get more done without burning anyone out. Volunteer for a committee based on what you're good at (or what sounds fun), and contribute as much or as little as your schedule allows.
-
The party planners, the vibe creators, the ones who make sure family nights, student celebrations, and staff appreciation actually happen. This is one of our most important committees and that typically needs the most hands to plan and execute. Whether you like long term planning, decorating, or showing up to volunteer for one thing the day of the event, any and all help is appreciated.
What They Manage:
Family nights that get everyone together
Staff appreciation (because teachers deserve ALL the snacks)
Student events and fun school day activities
Seasonal celebrations and special occasions
Wrangling volunteers so events run smoothly
