Volunteering

Parents and Friends of Barton Hills Elementary,

Help make this school year a huge success and volunteer! There are numerous volunteer opportunities, big and small, throughout the year that you can participate in that will make a difference. You can volunteer once or multiple times, whatever fits your schedule. Volunteering is a lot of fun and makes an impact in our children’s lives. Besides, it’s a chance to escape the adult world and be a kid again!

We have some areas we are attempting to fill as soon as possible. Please take a look at the following and if any appeal to you, contact Volunteer.BHEPTA@yahoo.com. Many are perfect for working parents who would prefer to volunteer mostly after hours from home. Our PTA is largely successful because of time spent by parents like you. What a better investment of your time and expertise but our kids! The volunteer hours of parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles, etc. is one of the things that makes Barton Hills Elementary a cut above the rest. WE NEED YOU!

Volunteer, Have Fun, and Make the School More Beautiful

It’s easy. Just sign up for a garden and, if you want, get friends, family,  a class, or a group of students together to design a garden from scratch, add plants to an existing garden, or maintain an existing garden. There is no minimum amount of work required, though we hope people will commit to a school year. You may do as little or as much as you like.

Contact Lisa Kerber for more information and to find out which areas are still available to adopt: 440-0066 or lisa@nybeck.net.
