2. Summer Math Club Volunteers Needed
Please be on the lookout for Summer Math Club packets which will be coming home in your child’s backpack in the next few weeks. In addition, we are in need of three Whittier parent volunteers to cover time slots for summer math at the library. This would be a one time, 3 hour time commmittment. If you have a child in need of service hours, it is a great opportunity to sign up yourself along with your child. If interested, please contact Lisa Folkening at a_folkeninghotmail.com.
Thanks so much!
