Parent Volunteers Wanted!
We are looking for parent volunteers to help with recess activities for the older children that play on Kamehameha field. The parents will go to their child's teacher for playground equipment and then set up games on the field such as relay races, handball, volleyball, basketball, soccer, frisbee throwing, parachute play. Parents would sign up for just one day and come on that day every week. They would need to come a little early to set up and then make sure all the supplies get returned to their child's teacher. If interested please call or email Joanie Ford (legendofthejojo@gmail.com or 561-8352) Thanks!
We need one parent volunteer from each grade: 4th ,5th , and 6th Monday – Friday for the times listed! Please contact me!
Here's the recess schedule:
12:00-12:15pm - 4th grade recess
(parents arrive at 11:45 to collect equipment)
12:30 - 12:45 5th and 6th grade
(parents would arrive at 12:15 to collect equipment)
Bank for Education $100,000 gift to Hawaii school -- What could Laie Elementary do with $100,000? Let's find out! Between now and Nov. 26, 2010,American Savings Bank is holding its "Bank for Education" competition. Go to any branch location (there's one at Foodland), and open a free checking account. FREE! You can open as many as you'd like. Once you get your debit card, you must have five transactions on the account for your account to count for our school. Buy five packs of gum in separate transactions, and you're set!!! You may close the account for no charge after 6 months. This is something small parents could do to make A LOT OF MONEY for our school. We got 4th place last year. This year, 1st - 3rd places get cash awards. Let's go for it!
VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITIES: Help your child think of someone at school who has made a difference to the "togetherness" of the school. Nominate that person for an IMPACT award in the front office.
PROJECTS FOR THE SCHOOL: There are several projects that the school would like to have done. These make great eagle projects, but would also be good for businesses, families, or youth groups in the area. If you would like to help, please contact Mr. Ho for some suggested projects, and submit a one-page proposal at the main office.
