Volunteer Activities
| We need volunteers for various projects through the year. Contact any PTA board member and let them know which activity/activities are of interest to you and when you are available to help. |
|
| Art History | Each year we ask parents to volunteer as "Picture Ladies ( or Gentlemen)" to teach art history in our classrooms. Duval County offers training so don't be afraid to become a part of this very rewarding program. |
| Clothing Closet | Volunteers are needed to sort and straighten clothing donated for use in emergencies. If you have any donations to give, place them in a bag, mark the bag with "clothing closet" and give it to your child's teacher. |
| Fall Festival | Fall Festival is held in November. Every class is reponsible for operating its own arts and crafts or game table. Each class needs help in operating their table and in ticket sales, set-up and clean-up. |
| Family Fun Night | Family Fun Night is a time for our Axson family to get together at the beginning of the year for fun and food. Help is needed with set-up, food service, ticket sales and clean-up. Upcoming FFN is October 12th. |
| Grant Preparation | Volunteers are needed to help solicit and write grant proposals for additional funding for equipment and special projects. |
| Health Screening | Vision screening is held in the Fall and is run on a volunteer basis. Volunteers are needed to perform vision screenings. Training will be provided. Fall 2007 vision screening is October 12th. |
| School Tours | Trained volunteers show visitors the school and introduce them to the Montessori Philosophy and classroom. Tours usually run from November to March. |
| Yearbook | Volunteers are needed to collect photographs and materials throughout the year, assemble the pages, sell personal notes and sell and distribute the yearbooks. |
| End of Year Staff & Faculty Luncheon | On the last day of school after all students have left, the faculty and staff gather together and unwind with a luncheon sponsored by the PTA. Door prizes and gift certificates are given away. Help is needed soliciting donations. |
