REGISTERED WORK WEEK VOLUNTEERS
Senior Parents,
Thank you for volunteering for Work Week—May 31 through June 7.
We'll gain access to the Small Gym and the Large Gym on Friday, May 31, at 2:30 p.m. We'll spend the weekend and the first part of the week prepping these two spaces for Grad Night. School is in session, and we need to be mindful not to be on campus while students are in class.
The remaining event spaces will be turned over to Grad Night organizers on Thursday, June 6, at 2:30 p.m. It will be all hands on deck at that time, with hundreds of parents transforming school spaces into magical event zones.
Grad Night needs to be 100% show-ready by 3:00 p.m. on Friday, June 7.
Below, we've posted team assignments for Friday, May 31, through Wednesday, June 5. This list was current as of May 29 at 5:00 p.m. We'll monitor sign-ups and continue to post updates regularly. Please click the day you signed up to see your team assignment. If you have questions, email Jen Colson at jcolson@gmail.com. We'll post details about Thursday, June 6, and Friday, June 7, at the beginning of next week.
