Calling all Volunteers!

Volunteers Needed for the Nutcracker Market

The annual school store is one of the student's FAVORITE activities. We are in need of volunteers to help price items, decorate and set up the store. We also need volunteers to be cashiers, help with the flow of shoppers, and help escort classes of students to and from the store. Please consider signing up to make this event a success for our students.
