If you would like to help out at school, but aren’t able to make time in your schedule, the Hostess Club might be your answer. We are the group that supplies things needed for various events throughout the year. More specifically, the conference dinners for our wonderful teachers and the~events of~staff appreciation week (May 3-7). We have conferences coming up again on Feb 25th and March 1st, and will soon be planning those dinners.~We could use more~volunteers to ensure success of these events.~If you are interested, please contact Angie Luman by email bkyfam@gmail.com or by phone 740.953.5020.

 

Library Volunteers
Library Help Needed! The library is in desperate need of a lot of help! Books are going unshelved due to the lack of help.~ If you have any time at all to donate (even 15-30 minutes after helping in your child’s classroom) please email Melissa Berry at theberrys@columbus.rr.com or stop in to see Ms. Soozie in the library.  **Note:  the above email address for Melissa Berry is new.
