Volunteers needed for Senior Boards, November 17th
We need community volunteers to help with Senior Board Presentations on Monday, November 17, from 12:30 p.m. – 4:00 p.m. Seniors will submit a portfolio and give a ten minute presentation about their projects. The board will rate the project according to a rubric. Training will be provided prior to and each volunteer will serve on a board made up of teachers and volunteers. Parents are welcome to participate, although parents of seniors will not evaluate their own child’s project. This is a great opportunity for parents of younger students to get an inside view of what their student will experience when he/she becomes a senior. If you can help, please save the date and complete this Senior Boards Volunteer Sign-up form. If you have any questions, you may email me at dvaardahl@universityschools.com. Put “Senior Boards” in the subject line.
Thank you,
Denise Vaardahl
