Level 2: Volunteer for Events or Join a Committee
You can volunteer to help at any of our events this year by emailing [email protected] or by joining a committee. We need more volunteers: Historian, Co VP of Programs, and Chairs for the Yearbook Committee, Book Fair Committee, Dad’s Club, and Various event committees (International Showcase, Talent Show, Love Fest, Art Show) , as well as volunteers to help on all committees.
We are also looking for volunteers to read with students 1 hour each week through our Everyone A Reader program starting later in the school year. For more information email [email protected].
Level 3: Join the CDM PTA Executive Board:
Become a member of the CDM PTA Executive Board and you will not only have the opportunity to get in the room where decisions are made, but you’ll also be able to create relationships with other CDM parents, teachers, and staff. We are a welcoming and low-key group that values diversity and a range of opinions. Our board meets once a month and each member is assigned a different position to support all that the PTA does for CDM.
Please contact Susanne Volk at [email protected] if you are interested in joining our board.
