Volunteers Needed for Winter Wonderland...Please Respond by Friday, December 19!

Dear Stonehedge Blue Families,

I know how busy you are and what a premium time is for everyone. Sometimes it seems that there is not enough time in a day for all that we have to do. With that being said, I am asking for volunteers for a very special upcoming event. A note detailing this information is going home today with students.

Our 2^nd AnnualWinter “Wonder”land project for grades K-2 will be beginning soon.  For those of you new to Stonehedge, this is a project based learning opportunity where students will be researching topics of interest and preparing a project to showcase and share what they have learned. 

Volunteers are needed to help children research and gather information and then to design and create their projects. This is done with small groups of students within the classroom. It all culminates with an evening event where families come to view the final projects. Last year, this proved to be a very exciting and motivating time for students as they explored and became experts about a variety of topics! 

The established schedule is as follows:

January 12-16, Topic Research, (Volunteers needed during the morning time frame ranging from 9:30-12:00)

January 20-23, Project Work, (Volunteers needed during the morning time frame ranging from 9:30-12:00)

January 26-29, Additional time if needed to complete projects (9:30-12:00)

February 5 Evening Presentation, (Need support to decorate and display projects after school 3:00 – 5:00)

If you are interested in helping out as a volunteer and are available during any of the above mentioned times, please complete the form included with the letter that went home today, or one is available online (by clicking here) and return to the main office by Friday, December 19^th.  If you have any questions, please contact the main office at 487-4633.  

I have scheduled a meeting for all individuals who wish to volunteer for Monday, January 12 at 9:30 in the Blue Cafeteria prior to the first day of the program. This will be a nice opportunity to meet you and share some of my requests for volunteering. Thank you in advance for considering volunteering. I look forward to hearing from those interested soon.

Sincerely,

Lori Keevil
