How Can You Volunteer?
Every parent at Loma Portal Elementary is a member
of the Loma Portal Foundation’s POD Squad -- and we
need you. Parents of Dolphins, now is the time to
participate in your child's educational experience.
The Loma Portal Foundation is a non-profit
organization that provides an avenue for tax-exempt
contributions and gifts to benefit Loma Portal Elementary. It provides financial
assistance, support and services for the instructional, educational, and
recreational needs of our students, including academic and athletic
programs, equipment, improvement to programs and enhancement of the
physical structures. You can find more information about POD Squad
volunteer opportunities on Konstella. Still need to sign up for Konstella?
Please take a moment to look over the following committees on Konstella
and sign up for any you may be interested in. There are opportunities for
everyone, whether you work full-time or are a stay-at-home parent. It takes
all of us to continue the valued programs, events, and services that make
Loma Portal great.
Now that you are signed up with Konstella, the Volunteer Interest will be in
one central place under the Committees option. Here’s How to find it:
1. Log On to Konstella.com or the APP
2. Click on Committees on the left side (computer) or Messages and Join
Committees (APP)
3. Scroll through and read the Committee Descriptions.
4. See one that interests you, click the button for the openings and sign
yourself up for a Lead or Member. This is not a commitment, it just lets us
know who to contact for volunteer opportunities.
We will be in contact with more info and the option for volunteer sign ups for
each committee.
