Volunteer Opportunities
May Cafeteria Volunteers

Have you ever wondered what your child's lunchtime is like each day? Come find out! Try volunteering during lunch any day of the week for your child's grade! This is a flexible and fun way to help the staff and students at EES. When you volunteer in the cafeteria, you are helping the kids to open items and bringing them the things they need such as a spork or napkin. Each lunch period is only about 25 minutes long, so it really flies by. 

As always, a huge THANK YOU to those who help out each week! We hope to see you soon!

Please see the link to sign up:
