Volunteer Central

Volunteers are crucial for student success at Educational Horizons. Parents are asked to volunteer a minimum of ten hours for the year. However, most go far beyond the minimum.

Volunteer time can take many shapes, such as attending PTO meetings, assisting in the classroom, shopping, baking or helping prepare Montessori Materials.

Below is a list of specific volunteer opportunities we currently need:

  • The PTO/school needs volunteers for numerous tasks. There is a direct correlation between the amount of volunteer hours families serve and student success.
  • Teachers are seeking tutors for students in the 2008-09 school year. Please call the school office at 729-0786 if available.
  • We have wonderful program to help students having difficulty with reading. The Barton Reading program needs tutors to work with the students. A video and detailed instructions are included in the training. Please contact the office if you are able to give an hour or two each week on a regular basis.
  • Mrs. G, art teacher, is looking for a volunteer to assist in the classrooms during art.
  • We now have several clubs available: Art, Lego and Nature clubs. For information see the white board or contact the office.
