Hallway Monitors Needed for State Testing

Volunteers Needed

We are in need of parent volunteers to help with monitoring hallways on state testing days. The main job of a testing monitor would be to walk students to the restroom and call for someone if a teacher needs assistance. Volunteers must be Level 2 volunteers and may not monitor on hallways where their own children are testing. Volunteers may not use electronic devices, such as cell phones, while monitoring. If you are available to monitor during testing hours (8:15-10:00 or 10:00-12:00) on any of the following dates - April 24, April 29, April 30, May 6, May 7- please click the button below to sign up for a slot.
