Events

Fall Festival

The Fall Festival is fun evening of food, games and entertainment for the entire family. The Scholastic Book Fair generally starts the same evening, allowing parents plenty of time to browse.

Event Security

Parent volunteers wear bright "security" t-shirts and carry 2-way radios as they mill around large events like Fall Festival and Spring Fling. The purpose is to be a visual deterrent to anyone who may not have business on our campus, and to have a means of getting assistance or attention if something unusual occurs. Thankfully, we've never had any issues arise.

Kids Vote

Work a 1-2 hour shift at our local polling station (across from Olds at Forest Hills Baptist Church) helping kids cast their vote.

Help with scenery, costumes, programs etc. Usually 3 per year, each working with 2 grades.
