Seeking Town Meeting Scribes

/

Another opportunity to meet your four volunteer hours commitment!  There are only two Town Meeting scribes, and ideally there should be four.

It’s not a hard gig - attend Town Meeting once a month or less (if there are four of us!) and take notes, put them into MailChimp (easy to learn!!) and send to the parent community.

It’s fun way to get an idea of what’s going on in the school-wide community and to see snippets of kids’ performances and talents (music, dance, comedy, acting, art and more) and share news of college acceptances and opportunities and events with other families. Sometimes we Scribes take our kids out to lunch afterward, which feels special.

If anyone has the flexibility to come to school on occasional Wednesdays for an hour, from 10:40-11:45 or so, we’d LOVE some more volunteers. Email Marjorie Ingall snarly@snarly.com.

ICE Back To School Recap!

/

We had another great party this year. It was a beautiful day and the garden was packed with I.C.E. parents, meeting new faces and greeting friends. The new 6th grade parents came out in force, bringing lots of excitement and new energy. We ate a lot of yummy barbecued chicken and burgers, and enjoyed plenty of ICEarita’s and Pimm’s Cup’s. And we also raised $1500 - just like that! Many thanks to all who came. It was really great talking to so many really cool people.
 
A BIG shout out to our volunteers:
Organizer:  Andy & Courtney McDowell; Onsite Sales: Andrea Santamaria, Kirsti Craig; Sign-Up Volunteers & Donations: Alisa Payne, Lisa Bleyer; Onsite Volunteers: KD Diallo, Highlyann Krasnow, Tara Rullo,  Kay Zias, Rachel Serrano, Israel Osorio, Zolaykha Sherzan, Jill Shely; Supply Donations: Scott LeVare, Alisa Payne, Olivia Sohmer Rosenbaum, KD Diallo, Daniel Georges, Ileen Kohn
