Ace Your Involvement With Your Child's School
Kids aren't the only ones who can enjoy school days filled with learning, fun, friends, and activities. Parents can share similar experiences when they volunteer at their child's school. Your commitment can be as minor or major as you like. The idea is to witness your child's academic world first-hand, lighten the teacher's load and have some fun.
When choosing what kind of contribution you'd like to make, let your interests and skills, along with your child's, guide you. One of the greatest rewards of classroom volunteering is discovering how much your child appreciates having you there to share in special moments. Here are some of the most popular pathways for parent involvement.
PTA & PTO
These groups provide excellent opportunities for parents to offer help and input.
Classroom Helpers
Leading a small group in reading, guiding arts and crafts projects, or assisting in computer learning are great ways to volunteer in your child's classroom.
Special Events
Schools often need help preparing and serving meals or refreshments for special events.
Field Trips
School-sponsored trips give children diverse experiences in the community. Parent participation on field trips helps teachers and students make the most of their time away from the classroom.
There are so many wonderful and meaningful ways to get involved with your child's school. Teachers and students greatly appreciate any time or services you can provide.
