 Dear Parents,


I'm in need of one parent who can come on Tuesday at 1:30 pm to help prepare and serve hot chocolate to the students. Please email me if you are interested/ available to help out. You must also have already completed your parent volunteer orientation this school year before coming.


Thank you!
