Who: Volunteers for Mableton Elementary
What: Parental Involvement Loyalty Cards (You must keep up with your own card.)
When: Every time you volunteer at Mableton Elementary you will receive an official “star punch” on your card. You will receive the “star punch” on your card when you sign-in to volunteer.
When you have received 10 “star punches”, please return the card (make sure the back is complete) to Mrs. Silva in the Front Lobby.
Here’s the Scoop:
-
When you have 10 “star punches” you will turn in your card to Mrs. Silva. She will let Mrs. Barela know and your card will be entered into a monthly drawing for a prize. You will be called if you are the monthly winner.
-
When your first card is turned in, we will take your picture and post it on the Parental Involvement Wall.
-
Each time you turn in a full card, you will then receive a sticker on your picture.
-
50 plus “star punches” or 5 full cards, results in a chance to be our “Volunteer of the Year”. VOTY is in the spring of each year.
Each volunteer must have their own card. Cards may not be combined within a family.
Thank you in advance for your Parental Involvement this year at Mableton Elementary.
Sincerely,
Kathy M. Barela, Parent Facilitator

to provide an unobtrusive presence in the schools, and
to be a positive and active role-model for students at their school.
HOW
They will support the school through monitoring the school property, working one-on-one or in small groups, reading, flashcards, homework, sports referees, or just have a listening ear.
PURPOSE
“To sow seeds of success in the lives of students.”
