Volunteers Make Our School Work
We appreciate all that you do!  As a non-profit, family-run school, your time is required to make our school community work.  To help us better track the many ways families give to the school, every family will be required to volunteer at least 12 hours/year at the school (i.e., June 2009 – May 2010).  This requirement is per family, not per child.

Service Hour activities include hands-on time for laundry, yard work, recycling, office help, sound table, fund raising events, buying items for class projects or celebrations, etc.  For many families, this new practice will simply require tracking the time you already give to the school.

Families will need to report the hours that they serve by one of two ways.  You can send an e-mail to parentnetwork@msgl.org (links can be found throughout the MSGL website) or you can write the information down in the log book located in the office.  Monthly updates for each family’s total time will be available in the log book.

We are hoping that this practice will enhance the spirit of community at MSGL as well as teach our children the importance of volunteering.
Volunteer Hours Example

 

Task Time*
Laundry 30 min
Snack 30 min
Supplies for a celebration 30 min
Recycling 1 hr
Sound table 1 hr
Listening to readers 1 hr
Xeroxing 30 min
Play dough 30 min
   
*Times are best estimates, your time may vary.

Other examples of volunteer work is yard work, filed trips, pumpkin cutting, yearbook committee meeting, class room crafts, sweeping mulch, setting chairs up, and handing out ice cream.  All of these actions help to enrich the MSGL community and our school.
