VOLUNTEER FOR LUNCH AND RECESS SUPERVISION

Thoreau has three school staff supervisors in the cafeteria; teachers and other staff are outside supervising recess.  AND we would love more volunteers to help us out.  It is a great time to see your children and support our school community.  

Please sign up through this SignUp Genius.  We will have two slots available for each lunch/recess slot each day.  The hour and 5 minute slots are for BOTH lunch and recess.  If you are unable to make it to the slot you signed up for,  no worries.  You can ask a fellow parent from Thoreau to cover, or sign up another time.  


THOREAU GEAR


We have two great options for Thoreau gear!
