Gilligan
One of our most fun volunteer opportunities, is getting to dress up as Gilligan the Gator for different events throughout the year.  If you are interested in being our mascot, please fill out this Google Form and we will contact you as opportunities become available. 

Room Parents 
Want to stay involved with your student's classroom throughout the year? Volunteer as a Room Parent! Plan some fun parties, show your teacher some appreciation and support the classroom, all while getting to know your student's classmates and teacher.

 Committees
