Playground Pals Needs YOU

If you are looking for an easy/flexible way to volunteer at the school, Playground Pals is for you! This Program is designed for parents to help the school staff promote an inclusive, safe, and fun environment during lunch recess. It is a great way for parents to get involved in the kid’s school day while accommodating busy schedules.

SCHEDULE:

  • Shift 1: 10:45am to 12:00pm on the south playground - 4th, 5th, 3rd grades
  • Shift 2: 12:00pm to 1:20pm on the south playground - Kindergarten, 1st, 2nd grades

During the shift, you will walk the entire playground to ensure that students are interacting in a safe manner and following the rules set forth by the school administration and Para Support Staff. It is also a chance for you to join in, play and have fun with the kids!!
