Kids Corps Needs a Parent Leader
The teachers who run Kids Corp would love a passionate parent to lead the club this year. While they will be happy to assist and to be at meetings, the planning of content and events would fall on the new parent leader(s).
Kids Corps focuses on community outreach projects.
If you're interested, please email Allie at asandoval@wcpss.net.
Volunteers Needed
We are looking for someone to head up our Spirit Nights! This person would be in charge of choosing the location and date for our monthly / bimonthly spirit nights! We have a list of locations that have been great to work with in the past but this person is also welcome to find new places that want to partner with our school if they choose! If you are looking for a way to support our school PTA, this may be a great volunteer role for you! Please email mandymacnaughton@gmail.com, our PTA President, if you are interested in learning more.
Garden Club
We are thrilled to announce that our Garden Club is back!
Mr. Ryan Roth, a track 3 parent, will be leading the club this year. The club is opened to all grade levels and will be meeting on Thursdays from 8:00 to 8:40 am. If you would like for your child to participate, please fill out this CLUB REGISTRATION by AUGUST 12.
We will send a calendar of activities on August 26 as well as a sign-up genius with volunteers' opportunities. If you have any questions, please email Mr. Roth directly at Roth.Ryan.D@gmail.com
Coding & Robotics Club
We are ready to get started with our OCE Coding/Robotics Club for the 2022-2023 year. The club will take place on Mondays from 4:00 to 5:00 pm. Applications will close on August 12.
Please note that this club usually receives way more applications than the 60 spots we have available. After you fill out the initial form, you will receive communication via email from Ms. Ferreira with specific dates for meetings, procedures for pick up, and the students that will be attending the club. We need volunteer parents to help us during the meetings. Please make sure you complete a Volunteer Registration with WCPSS at the beginning of the school year so that you can help us out.
