Teacher Appreciation Week
As you may know, May 2-6 is Teacher Appreciation Week. We know our teachers appreciate the "gift of time" and would love to have their lunch duty covered during Teacher Appreciation Week. If you are able to help, please sign up for a slot here: https://www.signupgenius.com/go/10c0e4eada82fa2f9c61-teacher Please make sure you have been approved as a volunteer here: https://www.pfisd.net/volunteers before signing up for a time.
If you volunteer, you would be responsible for making sure students stay seated while eating, don’t share food, follow the schoolwide expectations of being safe, respectful, and responsible, and helping them open lunch items as needed. You would also help them throw away their trash at the end of the lunch period.
Thank you for your consideration. I know our teachers will appreciate it!
