MASCOT Volunteers Needed!
We need YOU to volunteer to help us from time to time with our mascot for special events. So far we have 3 teachers and only 2 parents volunteer. We still need help on Tuesday, 12/17, from 1:30-1:50 and Thursday, 12/19 from 1:30-2:20. We’ve pulled some basic Mascot How-To’s to share with volunteers, no experience needed! I bet it is on someone’s bucket list and we’d love to help you out! Admit it, you always wanted to be Fred Bird just once didn’t you? If interested, CALL the office TODAY!
