CALLING 5th GRADE Parents
|
We are seeking volunteers to lead a VERY important tradition at HCES.
Maypole ~ we need a parent to come to PE and teach the kids the dance. There are so many YouTube videos that show the steps, this would be a FUN way to get involved and help carry on this tradition. Ms. Holladay has retired, and she always taught the students the steps during PE, so if we want to keep this tradition alive, we need a parent to step in and help our new PE coaches this year! Check out this YouTube link to see how fun and easy it is!

Typically the students vote on the last song played, and choose something upbeat and fun. Most of our 5th grade teachers have participated in this before and I am sure they have a lot of helpful information! Please email us at hcespta01@gmail.com if you would like to help out with this event.

Library Volunteers
|
The sign up for library volunteers is up. Most important are Mondays, Wednesdays, and Friday mornings, since our library aide isn't there those days. Volunteers scan the books out to the students, check books in and shelve the books as time permits. Please consider working a shift in our library.
Please note - if you can only work a portion of the shift listed, that is ok. We appreciate all the help we can get!
