OPEN NOW: Volunteer Sign Ups via Membership Toolkit!
Now that everyone is settled into their classes, it’s time to think about how you might want to get involved with the school this year. Sign ups are open NOW for three types of volunteer positions: Classroom Parent Leaders, Grade-Level Social Chairs, and PTA Committee volunteers. You can sign up for all of these positions via the Volunteer section of Membership Toolkit, which you can find HERE.
Classroom Parent Leaders
This year, we will have four classroom volunteer roles for each class room: Classroom Parent, Party Planner, Sustainability Wellness and Garden (SWAG) Coordinator, and Yearbook Coordinator. For more details on what each role entails, please visit here. Signups for each of these roles are open now on Membership Toolkit and will remain listed until the positions are filled. Please note that you will need to register or update your family information on Membership Toolkit to sign up for these roles, if you haven't done so already.
For questions about the Classroom Parent Leaders program and roles, reach out to Classroom Parent Coordinators: Yasuko Toeda (for grades K-3) and Marla Johnson (for grades 4-5).
Grade-Level Social Chairs
Each grade level has one or two social chairs who help plan two to three grade-wide social activities where MES families can get to know each other outside of school. Grade-level events may include park playdates, movie nights, picnics, or whatever fun ideas the chairs come up with. Social chairs may also work with the class parents to plan end of the year grade-level parties. For more details on this position, please visit here. Signups for these positions are open now on Membership Toolkit and will remain listed until the positions are filled.
PTA Committee Sign Ups
In addition to the classroom volunteers, sign ups are also open now for all of our assorted PTA committees. Through these sign ups, you'll be able to indicate which event(s) and/or committee(s) you may want to help with this year, either as a full committee member or as an event day volunteer. Our committee chairs will then use these sign ups (as well as the information previously shared through the Volunteer Interest Form) to reach out to interested individuals about the different roles they need filled. To learn more about the different events and programs that our committees support, please visit the PTA section of the MES website, here.
As with Classroom Parent Leaders, sign ups for committee opportunities will be facilitated via Membership Toolkit.
