VOLUNTEERS
We are very grateful to our parent volunteers! Last year over 130 parents and community personnel volunteered their services. They are an important part of the school program. These volunteers help the school by providing extra help and attention for students, by preparing instructional materials, and assisting the teacher in specific curriculum areas, helping in computer lab, media center, main office, field day activities and sharing cultural experiences. This makes it possible for the teachers to spend more time with the students and with smaller groups of children.
Volunteers may help occasionally for special programs and study trips or they may work with a particular teacher or a special student on a regular basis. Some activities may be non-instructional, such as correcting papers, typing, preparing materials, or arranging bulletin boards. They may also tutor a student, work with a small group, or read a story. Volunteers often have their own special interests or talents to share with the students, for example, slides to show for a social studies unit, costumes, crafts, or music to share for ethnic studies, or going along on a host nation study trip. If you would like to volunteer your time or wish more information, contact the main office at 06181-906-980.
PARENT/TEACHER/STUDENT ASSOCIATION
The Argonner Elementary School PTA
is associated with the European PTA Congress. All members of the school
community are encouraged to join and participate in the PTA. We encourage
teachers, parents, and students to support the PTA through membership,
attendance at meetings, and participation in its activities and events.
PTA meetings are held once a month and programs of interest to the students
and community are presented.
Argonner Elementary School has benefited considerably from the PTA. PTA
has generously provided funding for special events, assisted with updating
and enlarging our computer program, and provided invaluable volunteer
services. When you think about joining this organization, remember that
your support of PTA is support for our school and our students. Contact
the main office at 06181-906-980.
SCHOOL ADVISORY COMMITTEE (SAC)
The School Advisory Committee is made up of elected parents and educators. The committee meets monthly to discuss suggestions, issues, and problems and to make recommendations to the principal. Parents are invited to attend SAC meetings, which will be held at the school each month. Concerns may also be submitted in writing through the child’s teacher. Contact the main office at 06181-906-980.
