Volunteering Opportunities

Below you'll find links to some of the volunteering opportunities for Room 10! We hope to add some more as the year progresses so look out for updates. 
 
Dishwashing
One family is needed per month to take a classroom dishes home over the weekend and returned on the following Monday morning (before 8:30 AM). A crate with the dishes will be prepped by the teacher and ready by the end of each day on each Friday. Volunteers can sign up for one or multiple months. Dishes will be left by the carline gate for pick up. To drop off, volunteer will give to a teacher helping at carline. If dropping off before 8:00AM, volunteer may park and bring dishes into the classroom. ALL DISHES ARE DISHWASHER SAFE.
 
Laundry
One family is needed per month to take a bag of laundry home over the weekend and return folded on the following Monday morning (before 8:30 AM). The bag will be prepped by the teacher and ready by the end of each day on each Friday. Volunteers can sign up for one or multiple months. Laundry will be left by the carline gate for pick up. To drop off, volunteer will give to a teacher helping at carline. If dropping off before 8:00AM, volunteer may park and bring laundry into the classroom.
 
Mystery Reader
Volunteer will choose ONE child-friendly book from home, read to the classroom, and lead a very quick, short discussion of the book (no more than 5 minutes). This activity will be done right before playground time on Fridays (11:00-11:15 AM). As the title suggests, this person is to remain a "mystery" to all the children (including, if possible, to the volunteer's own child). An email of our "Mystery Reader Guidelines" will be sent the week before the volunteer is scheduled to visit.
 
Arts and Crafts
Once a month an "arts and crafts" class will be led by Mrs. Marie. Teacher assistants will be present while the lead teachers use this as prep time in the classroom. Parent volunteers will assist during the class, which takes place once a month on a designated date at 10:15-11:15 AM. No experience is necessary, but an interest in working with children and be a support to the teachers. Volunteers can sign up for one or more days. On their assigned date, volunteers will park on the ECC campus, and go the ECC office to get a "VISITORS" badge. The receptionist will then direct the volunteer(s) to the correct location to meet the class. Mrs. Marie will present her lesson in the classroom and the children will the walk to the picnic tables near the soccer field to start the project.
