Edgewood PTO Volunteer Committee Opportunities

2023-2024

 

Our Parent Teacher Organization (PTO) has a rich tradition of volunteering.  Everyone has special gifts and talents, and we encourage you to share yours with the students and faculty at Edgewood Elementary through our PTO volunteer program.  We welcome you whether you can give a great deal of time or just a few hours.

 

Student Service

 

 

Kindergarten Welcome -Volunteers will work together to help welcome incoming kindergarteners and their families at Kindergarten preview day at school in late April 2024.  This is a special day where incoming kindergartners will have the opportunity to see Edgewood and spend some time in a kindergarten classroom. Volunteers will also help distribute kindergarten yard signs to incoming kindergarteners in late July 2024. Click here to sign up to volunteer.

Communications Committee

 

Room Parent - Room Parent volunteers facilitate communication between parents and the teacher, school administration, and/or PTO, and provide support to the teacher throughout the school year. This year there will only be ONE room parent per class (based on feedback from administration and teachers). There will also be one assistant per class. Please pay attention closely when signing up which role you are signing up for. Also, you may only be a room parent for ONE classroom. This is to allow more people the opportunity to be a room parent. Click here to sign up to volunteer.
