What do parents get out of volunteering? Input into how fundraising funds get

spent, what types of fundraising should be done, and insight into the workings of the school and what your kids are doing at the school.

What is involved in being on the council? Our council meets approximately 7

times during the school year for about an hour; various positions require some small further commitment to ensure all requirements are met for future fundraising opportunities; and having more involvement in your child’s education and school experience.

What types of fundraising does the council do? The main fundraising

opportunity to the school is the casinos that are run every two years. The last casino brought in $80,000 for the school.
