Teacher Preference Sheets
Our Teacher Appreciation Committee works hard all year long to help express our collective appreciation. If you’re looking for a fun way to treat your teacher to something personal throughout the year, check out their preference sheets here, including likes and dislikes and wish lists.
GET A HEAD START ON VOLUNTEERING! If you plan to volunteer at school this year in any capacity such as reading in the classroom, mentoring as a Bobcat Buddy or chaperoning a field trip, you are required to apply online with the school district before you are able to volunteer. If you are returning as a volunteer from last year, you can reactivate last year’s volunteer application. *PLEASE NOTE THAT ALL VOLUNTEERS NEED TO RE-APPLY FOR SCREENING EACH YEAR. *Volunteers will not be permitted on campus unless signed in with a valid driver’s license.
It takes a village to raise a child. Most of our operating budget comes from the our generous Business Sponsors and the Fun Run. Here is how those dollars make a difference in our classrooms:
- Teacher classroom funding, used for materials, books, ink cartridges etc.
- Mini-grants for classroom supplies, professional development or special projects
- Upgrades to student technology
- RIF (“Reading is Fundamental”) events where students select a new book to keep
- Student enrichment and family events such as Fall Festival, Literacy Week, Movie Night, Art Night, Heritage Night and Mileage Club
- Meet the Teacher, Tears and Cheers Breakfast, Senior Breakfast and Conference Night dinners for teachers
- Classroom periodicals and educational computer programs
- Teacher and staff appreciation events throughout the year
- Music & Arts program funding, Guidance Department expenses, and Media Center expenses
- Landscaping for the school
- Family Outreach Programs
- and more!
