As I mentioned before, I will be temporally stepping in to help make sure everything runs smoothly. But, I need some HELP!
I am looking for a list of volunteers that will be PSR Hall Monitors. If you are interested in helping at PSR; but didn't want to teach, or if you are just hanging around during that hour, or if you just want to help a guy keep his sanity...consider volunteering to be a Hall Monitor.
We are in desperate need of a Hall Monitor for PSR sessions, sadly it does not include a cool vest or badge. Job Duties: Be present in the hallways during PSR, assist parents to finding their child's classroom, assist teachers or aides with making copies or answering questions, collect attendance sheets, and possibly fill in as a sub. Must have Protecting God's Children training.
--- We are no longer doing Family Activity Days. These were sessions that were either 30 mins before or after PSR.
--- Instead of Family Activity Days, we are now doing two separate Service Blitz. A can food drive the months of November & December and the Kits for Kids collection in the months of March & April
---The teachers and aides got together and decided to cancel PSR on January 8th & 9th.
--- Christmas & End of Year parties have been moved to classroom parties instead of meeting in the Parish Hall.
Sacraments
