10 Reasons To Get Involved
Volunteering makes a big difference!!
Volunteering offers tangible ways to be part of things. Sometimes we might mean well, but our busy lives get in the way of committing. Joining a parent group will provide concrete ways to get involved, whether at events, in the classroom, or on a committee.
It feels great to participate!!
You’ll get to know other parents. It’s powerful to create a circle of adult friends around a school, and having a shared interest is a good place to start. What’s more, it can help foster connections between families in your community.
Your help is always needed. Whether it’s helping run the next big event or providing support in the classroom, there are always ways to pitch in.
It’s a manageable commitment.
It's fun!!
You can tailor volunteering to play to your strengths. Within a parent group or school community there are many ways to contribute, some of which are sure to complement your strengths, interests, or professional skills.
Have a great idea? Volunteering gives you opportunities to get your ideas out there.
Volunteering provides another way to get to know school and support staff to better understand their needs and ideas.
