PARENT VOLUNTEER FORM ~ 2007-08 School Year

Bixby School depends on parental support and participation during the school year. Your volunteer efforts benefit our teachers, staff, and most of all our children. Please take a few minutes to consider ways in which you would be willing to contribute to your child's school. Every volunteer commitment, large or small, is very important. The time commitment for most of these jobs is very flexible. We value and need the volunteer time and energy you can give to support our community.
