Volunteer Opportunites

Many of you expressed an interest in volunteering in our classroom. I have some volunteer opportunities that need to be filled soon. Take a look and email me soon. I'll work with your availability.

  • We are still in need of a Main Room Parent. You would be the liaison between PTA sponsored activities and our classroom.  You'll receive a list of parents who are able to volunteer, so you can get help with your assignments. There is a Room Parent Orientation coming up soon where you'll learn about what you'll need to help with throughout the year. It's completely acceptable to co - Room Parent if you know another parent in the class who might like to share the responsibility.
  • We need someone to teach Meet the Masters this year. Helping with Meet the Masters requires a couple of hours a month, and you actually get to come in and teach your child's class and art project. You don't necessarily need to be "artistic", and you'll have step by step directions on how to teach each project. Michelle Wolfenbarger heads this program, and you can email her at wolfenbargerfamily@mac.com or call her at 801-944-5422(home) or 801-243-2657(cell).
  • I need someone to come into the classroom to help me with all the "new school year" paperwork. Each student brings back about 10 documents that need to be sorted, tracked and filed. This year that adds up to about 300 papers! Please help.
  • We will start practicing for our Presidential Fitness Tests next week. Some of these tests are one by one, so it involves a lot of waiting around on the students' part. I thought it would be much more fun this year if someone could come in and lead half the class in a P.E. activity, while I test the other half . Then we'll switch. You would be working with about 15 students at a time. Our P.E. time is on Wednesday's from 1:00 -1:45. Therefore you would have each group fro about 20 to 25 minutes.
Thank you for your time. We need you, and additional opportunities will come up if you can't help with any of these. My email is nancy.bauman@canyonsdistrict.org
