For our 2026-2027 school year, we are bringing back the Head Room Helper role! This role is a wonderful way to support your child's teacher and help create a fun, organized classroom experience throughout the school year.

As the Head Room Helper, you will:

🎉 Coordinate and organize classroom parties throughout the year.

📸 Serve as the designated photographer for your child's classroom, capturing special moments and sharing photos with the teacher or room parents as needed.

🤝 Assist the teacher with occasional requests, such as classroom projects, special events, coordinating volunteers, or helping arrange classroom visitors and other enrichment opportunities.

The Head Room Helper works closely with the teacher to ensure classroom events run smoothly while helping create memorable experiences for the students. Thank you for sharing your time and talents with our classroom—we couldn't do it without you!

The sign up will be released THIS FRIDAY at 8pm and will be first come, first served!

Below are two links for families to review. One is to sign up for canoe rides that will be available in partnership with Friends of the Fox River.
