Our parent volunteers are the cornerstones of our school community. They bring essential enrichment to our students and foster belonging as our students make their journey through elementary school.
"Volunteerism is the voice of the people put into action. These actions shape and mold the present into a
future of which we can all be proud." —Helen Dyer

Parent Testimonials
"We've been at the school since 2021, and volunteering through Yearbook, the PTA Board, Art, Walkathon, Auction, and more has helped me feel truly connected to the campus and community. It has been really special for my kids to see me involved in their school, and I’ve loved getting to know other families while supporting our students. Being involved has made us feel genuinely rooted, invested, and part of this community."
