Volunteers Needed for Board, Sub-Committee Chair and Co-Chair Positions, and Workroom Help!
We are currently filling chair positions for the 2024-2025 school year. If you are interested in any of the following, please send us an e-mail at valleypta@yahoo.com!
Board Member Positions
* VP of Art Programs: Order and organize art supplies kept in the workroom. Oversee Reflections and Art Show committee chairs. Train classroom art teachers as needed.
* Financial Secretary: Receive and deposit PTA funds at the bank and report to the board monthly. You should be available to attend most PTA functions where money is collected and help count at the end of the event.
Committee and Sub-Committee Chairs/Co-Chairs and Specialists
* Financial Reviewer: With a committee (or alone if you are a CPA), review the records of the Treasurer in July and January to ensure PTA procedures were followed. This can be done at home and takes a few hours twice a year. Without a committee, review the bank records each month.
* Assemblies: Research opportunities for 2-3 educational on-campus assemblies per year. Can be in conjunction with other events (e.g., Red Ribbon Week) or separate. Work with the office on scheduling and determine if volunteers are needed and create sign-up form. Minimal on-campus time required, if any.
* Facebook Administrator: Keep our school community informed by posting events and working with the executive board and committee chairs to answer questions, add or remove members based on the membership list for current school year, and monitor content in our PTA Facebook group. No on-campus requirement.
* Website Administrator: Update this website with weekly Paw Prints and other times as needed. The program is easy to use and can be done from home. No on-campus requirement.
* Workroom Support: Work with the office to determine consistent day(s) each week and coordinate volunteers to spend 1-2 hours per week making copies, laminating, cutting, and stapling for school staff.
* Jog-a-thon Event Coordinator: Shadow our current chair for the 2025 Jog-a-thon as she works with Ultra Fun Run and volunteers to make our biggest fundraiser a success, and take the reins in 2026.
* Scholastic Book Fair Co-Chair: Work with the school administration and Scholastic to set up the book fairs twice per year and administer Scholastic Bucks for the teachers.
* Art Show Chair(s): Work with the teachers to procure and display artwork for the Art Show that coincides with the Foundation's STEAM Fair in the Spring.
