Volunteers

Volunteers are essential for the successful operation of any school, and at Crest View their efforts are always greatly appreciated. We strongly believe that our volunteers directly benefit the school by:

• Increasing individual student instruction
  
• Expanding enrichment opportunities
  
• Enabling the more efficient use of our teachers' time and skills
  
• Generating funds for student activities
  

We find that Crest View's parent-staff communication is greatly strengthened as a result of our volunteers' involvement in the education process. Early each fall, information is sent home to parents outlining various volunteer opportunities. Participation can be easily adapted to fit your time constraints and interests.

Every year volunteers are needed in the following areas:

• individual classrooms
• library
• Habitat
• new and used book fairs
• health room
• computer lab
• school pictures
• silent auction
• frog-a-thon

In addition, parents are encouraged to take part in a wide variety of social events, services, and fund raising activities. Opportunities may range from the Pancake Breakfast and Teacher Appreciation Days to Back-to-School Night and the Sock Hop/Silent Auction.
