Volunteering for 2012-2013

If you registered to volunteer during the 2011-2012 school year, you will need to reactivate your status starting July 6.  If you do this from July 6 – October 31st, you will not require a background check; therefore, it will automatically go through.  The volunteer site will be open daily.  If you wait until after October 31, it will require a background check and the site will only be open on Mondays starting November 5th.  Registering to be a volunteer is NOT the same as signing in at the office.  The office system is ONLY a visitor management system, not a volunteer registration system.

All Drivers & Carpoolers

PLEASE be extra cautious when driving in and out of the school property. Drive SLOWLY and use caution when turning into the driveway.  Speeding into school is not worth the potential injury to those in the crosswalk.

Only a few parents have volunteered to monitor the entrance into TCE’s driveway. We are asking parents who can assist with this to send your name, contact information, and availability to tcevolunteers@gmail.com.  We are in need of volunteers to safely cross our children to and from school.  It takes less than half an hour of your time, per shift.

Harmony parents, if you are walking your child to school, please consider helping out and ensuring the safety of all our precious children. 

From the Health Room

This is a reminder for students who require medications while at school or who need emergency medications to be available for them at school.  You will need to obtain a NEW 1702 form for the 2012-2013 school year.  Medications will not be dispensed unless this form has been provided to the Health Room.   If you have already received this form for the new school year, please bring it to the office.

VOLUNTEERS ARE NEEDED:

The TCE PTA is currently looking for a VP of Grants and Giving for the 2012-2013 school year.  The responsibilities for this board position are to work with a team to identify and submit grant proposals for the needs of our school, as well as seek out corporate sponsors to support major fundraising efforts.  This VP will offer leadership and support to the team of volunteers, as well as attend monthly board meetings.  To inquire more about this valued position or to join the PTA team, please contact Donna Webb (donnajwebb3@gmail.com) or Kelly Elg (kelg@nc.rr.com) or Missy Laster (mlaster@wcpss.net).

 Field Day

Thank you to everyone who took time out today to volunteer at Field Day.  We had an overwhelming response.  We were able to make this day fun and exciting for the children. We could not have done it without your help.  Thank You!!!  A special thanks goes to Marie Guinan for co-coordinating this successful event - we appreciate all your hard work!
