MARQUEE GREETINGS ARE BACK! Want to wish your child a Happy Birthday, 1/2 Birthday, or congratulate them for an accomplishment? Now you can see their name on the new NDPA Marquee. The cost for each posting is $10, for each day you want it posted. Payments can be made online at http://signup.com/go/3yryKw or you can drop cash/check in the POET Box at either building. If you pay at the POET box, email Jennifer, jnicholson@northdavisprep.org. All marquee requests need to be made seven days prior to when you want it posted on the marquee.

  • Please list your child’s name (exactly how you want it on the banner), date it needs to be posted, and which graphic you want. You will receive a confirmation email from jnicholson@northdavisprep.org.

VOLUNTEER! You may have noticed that we are not using signup.com this year. POET will be using the new RAPTOR system that the school will have for Checking In/Out. Until that is available, we are collecting volunteers the old fashioned way! Look for the volunteer form at the POET desk. There are lots of opportunities to volunteer, so watch Facebook for announcements.

SCHOLASTIC BOOK FAIR is headed your way… Volunteers needed! The Scholastic Book Fair will need help October 16 through 18. Volunteers are needed to help setup and run the Book Fair. If you would like to volunteer, contact Jennifer Nicholson at jnicholson@northdavisprep.org for specific times. The Book Fair helps buy and earn books for both of our NDPA libraries. This is a great, fun way to get your volunteer hours in. Contact Jennifer today!

AT HOME HELP WANTED – We are looking for volunteers for the Donations Committee for the 2018 Art Auction. We need help getting donations for the silent auction portion of the art auction. Its a great way to get volunteer hours and to do it from home by contacting businesses via phone or email. It’s very easy and we have a letter that you can send to the businesses for their donations. I even have a script that you can follow to ask for donations! Please email Isabel with questions at: isabelcpatterson@gmail.com. We will be holding a meeting in the next few weeks.

SCIENCE OLYMPIAD COACHES WANTED! Do you want some fun volunteer hours? Like doing things in math or science? Please let Ms. Adams know ASAP if you’d be interested in coaching, radams@northdavisprep.org. Coaching with your students can be at your own convenience, but should be about an hour a week. Your child does not need to be on the team for you to be a coach. All coaches receive a $50 stipend for each event they coach. Coaching time can be logged as volunteer hours. This is a year long commitment.

To find out more information about individual events, see the rules manual here: http://northdavisprep.org/wp-content/uploads/2017/09/S.O.-Rules-Manual-B-Division-2018.pdf or on Ms. Adams website at: www.my.uen.org/107625
