Perfect Summer Volunteer Opportunity for the Whole Family!

Our schoolyard is quite an amazing place.  With so many unique gardens that function as outdoor classrooms for our children, our yard requires some tender loving care over the summer in order to be able to thrive!

The Yard Committee is asking families to please sign up for a week in the summer when your family would take responsibility for a particular area and ensure it is watered appropriately during that week.  This is a GREAT WAY for children to volunteer and make a direct impact at the school and a wonderful way to spend some quality time together as a family.  If you are interested in volunteering to help with watering this summer, please contact Sarah Frame.
