Fundraising & Volunteer Opportunities

Volunteer Opportunities 
Volunteering allows you to participate in the Johnny Appleseed community and make a lasting impact on the school and your child's education.  We invite you to contact us to learn more.   

       

Library 
Volunteers help children select books, and check them in/out during their visit to the library. You will also work with the media assistants to shelve books and assist in other related tasks. The time commitment is usually once a week for 1+ hours in the morning or afternoon. Every effort is made to place volunteers in time slots that coincide with their children's visit the library. 

       

Fundraising 
Our biggest committee, Fundraising has many sub-groups that meet throughout the year to work on various events. Volunteers help with daily tallying of magazine orders during the magazine sale.  Our Holiday Elf Shoppe involves the help of volunteers-whether it’s restocking items, helping students shop, or covering the checkout table. During Italian Night parents and teachers take shifts to keep the pasta flowing smoothly while others relax with their children and friends in the cafeteria Many parents assist by sending in baked goods when needed, also. The Book Fair comes to school for a week and is staffed by parents who get to work with their child's class if they so choose. The Lawn Party requires the help of many volunteers-both behind the scenes and the day of the Lawn Party.  Parents staff games, help in the cafeteria, Pot Luck Raffle, setup and cleanup. Whether you have an hour to spare or are able to commit for the entire school year, no amount of time or help is too small.  We are always looking for new ideas and fresh faces.
