VOLUNTEER TO HELP IN CLASSROOMS: From time to time, teachers have meetings during the day which pulls them from the classroom. We rely on parent volunteers to help in the classrooms during these times! If you are interesting in helping, email Lauren Baugh at laurenmcbaugh@gmail.com RAPTOR: The Mountain Brook School System has a new check in procedure that requires you to check in with your driver's license. Anytime you come to the school (lunch, mystery reader, volunteer work, etc.), you must have your license with you! Please help us keep our kids safe. CRESTLINE LIBRARY: The Crestline Library relies on parent volunteers to help shelve books that are checked in each week. Volunteering in the library is a flexible commitment and is an easy way to get involved. The librarians are so appreciative of the support that comes from the volunteers! Sign up to help HERE BOXTOPS & PLANET FUNDRAISER: Download the Boxtops and Planet Fundraiser apps to have everyday purchases give cash back to our schools!
