Did you know that Goodwin's Parent Teacher Organization is one of the oldest official PTOs in the state? PTOs serve a critical role in an elementary school. Because of these volunteers, we are able offer many wonderful student and family oriented programs that enrich the school lives of all of our children.
Often many of the same volunteers find themselves organizing and running events. If you haven't volunteered to help with any of our events, won't you please consider helping out this year? There are all types of jobs just waiting for the right volunteer.
Do you like to cook? Volunteer to bake for our bake sale or make lunch for the Staff appreciation week.
Do you like the outdoors? Volunteer for Goodwin's Fun Fair or the new Fall Harvest.
Can't come to school during the day? Your skills might be just what we need for publicity or prepping for an event.
When your children know that you are volunteering, they really understand that you are partners with their school. You don't need to make a big commitment - just one or two small steps a year. If every parent of our 220 students were to help out, think how vibrant this year could be! If you would like to give just a little bit of your time to continue to make Goodwin a great place to be, please consider joining us at our next PTO meeting at 6:30 on Wednesday, October 19. If you can't make the meeting, send me a note or email and I will forward it to the PTO. Hope to see you this Saturday at the Harvest!
