We are 3 days out from early release Friday, October 31st! 🎃
⏰ Make plans to pick your pioneer up at 12:00pm!


✨Tomorrow is our VIPS meetings✨
🤔 Have you ever thought about being a Barron Volunteer before? Not sure what kind of opportunities are open to you? Join us TOMORROW!
⏰ October 29th. One meeting at 8:00 am and another at 2:25pm.
These meetings are designed to inform you on the process of becoming a volunteer and the opportunities available. We will also have computers set up to assist those who may need help with the technological part of signing up. We suggest this meeting if you are:
1.) Just curious about the opportunities at your elementary school and want to see if becoming a VIP is really for you.
2.) Wanting to volunteer but having a hard time navigating the internet to get to your application.
3.) Already a volunteer but want to get information on ways you can help in the coming months!
👶 Are you a parent with a baby? Don't shy away from this meeting either! Volunteering still might be for you!
Please share this meeting with grandparents, older siblings, aunt, uncles, or any one else in your Childs support system that is interested in being a VIP.
Check out the flyers for the information needed on an application! Can't wait to see you there!
