Volunteer Opportunities
PTA HOSTED BREAKFAST for the STAFF
Each month this school year our staff will be gathering for a monthly meeting before school. We’d love to show our appreciation by providing breakfast for these morning meetings. Each month a different grade level will “host”, beginning with 6th grade.
The PTA is excited to partner with the 5TH GRADE FAMILIES to host October’s staff breakfast on Friday, October 11th. There are many ways you can contribute including monetary donations, food donations, and volunteering. If you are making a food contribution, please drop off to the cafeteria between 8-8:15 AM.
Please select what works best for you. Hopefully everyone can find a way to get involved and show our amazing staff at Dranesville how much we appreciate them! Please feel free to contact Kristen Chevalier, secretary1@dranesvillepta.com with any questions.
