We need your help! Ideally, we'd love to have 3 volunteers each school day assisting in the lunchroom.
No experience needed! Assist staff in helping make the lunchroom run smoothly. Get on the C.A.S.E.!

Click HERE to sign-up electronically. If you can't stay for the entire time, come as you are able. We also love 'drop-in' help.
Lunchroom volunteers come first to the PSI main office, sign in, get a name tag and are then directed down to the lower level to the cafeteria.
¡Muchísimas Gracias!
