The Star of the Week program needs your help! As you may know, Star of the Week (SOTW) is a program sponsored by the Hall-Dale Elementary School PTO. You’ve seen the posters of our students, and hopefully have heard feedback about it at home. We hope you agree that this is a valuable effort and one that touches every single child in the school. If you haven’t done it, you should know it is one of the most enjoyable volunteer opportunities imaginable. In order to continue, the SOTW team needs volunteers. We really hopeyou can help. Here is how the program works: On Monday mornings, from 8:30 am to 10 am, parent volunteers remove the prior week’s posters from the bulletin board, interview one student from each class, take their picture, and give them a ribbon (which they can wear all week), and a 50-cent coupon for the school store. (Note: several parent volunteers are needed for this part). Next, a volunteer has the photos developed, and returns to the school by 1 p.m. with the photos to paste them on the Star of the Week posters. Another volunteer comes in the early afternoon to laminate the posters, and put them on the SOTW bulletin board where they remain for one week. While most of this has to be done at the school, there is some volunteer work that can be done at home, mainly coloring the stars on the poster. *********************************************************************************** Please complete the following and let the PTO know how you can help: Name: ___________________________________ Phone: __________________________ Email address: __________________________________________________ Yes!
