Volunteer with the PTA
Volunteers are the backbone of our organization. Without volunteers we would not be able to offer all of the activities, events, programs or enrichment opportunities that make Terrace Park such an amazing school. The list of needs a volunteer can fill are endless and the special talents of volunteers cannot be purchased.
Who Can Volunteer? You! Working parents, stay-at-home parents, young adults, grandparents, aunts and uncles, community members-basically anyone can be an invaluable volunteer. Even if you only have an hour to spare, we can use your help. Unable to make it to the school during school hours? There is plenty of volunteer activities that can be done from home.
What Skills Are Required? A love of children is all that is required. While there is always a need for those with expertise in a given area such as communications, marketing, social media, legislation, etc., there are endless tasks at every level. From stuffing envelopes and stapling packets to supervising and directing children, there is truly something for everyone.
How Often Must I Volunteer? There is no minimum amount of time required to volunteer. If you have a spare hour or two once a year, that is enough. You can run a table at math night, staple Wednesday packets one week or help at STEAM club one afternoon. If you are willing and able to commit more time throughout the year, there are countless volunteer opportunities available, such as heading a committee or joining the PTA board.
Why Do People Volunteer? There are many reasons why people volunteer.
