As mentioned at Curriculum Night, we are using an online system for parents to volunteer for classroom parties and Art Awareness. Starting today, you may sign up via the SignUp website. A few points about this automated system:
- Once you click on the Sign Up link below, select your desired classroom, then enter your email address. Note: Sign Up does not share email addresses; this allows them to send out an automated reminder prior to the event. You are now at the main screen where you can view positions by month (simply click on the tab for Sept 2019, Oct 2019, etc.). Position descriptions will provide details such as event, date & time, quantity, and what is expected of the volunteer.
- Be sure to “Confirm Your Spot(s)” before closing the web page.
- It is easier to view and navigate Sign Up on a full-screen computer. The mobile browser works, but it is a little harder to move between months, and it will not show the names of other volunteers (critical if you plan to work with a friend on Art Awareness, for example).
- In order to ensure parents have equal opportunities to volunteer, parents may only sign up for one classroom party per year for each child. This limit will be lifted 24 hours after the sign up is released. After noon on Saturday, September 7th, parents may sign up for additional parties if available. There is no limit for Art Awareness sign ups. You may sign up for as many as you would like.

Except ion: 1st and 5th Grades run art immersions on pre-determined dates. Please sign up for 1st and 5th Grades only if you can commit to the exact date and time listed on Sign Up.
