Volunteer

We need you to help out to make our school a success!  With each parent taking on something during the school year the load is light for everyone, plus it creates a great sense of community that we can all appreciate at PJ.

Volunteer Opportunities at a Glance

PJPAC Executive

If you’d like to make a positive contribution to the PJ community please considering joining the PAC Executive for 2024-2025.

Chair: This member will lead General, Special, and Executive meetings; preparing and presenting agendas; understanding the constitution, bylaws, and meeting rules; appointing committees as authorized by the Executive membership; representing the PAC in school and district activities; serving as the official spokespersons of the PAC; and acting as signing officers. This role can also be shared as co-chairs.
 
Communications: We are in need of another communications member to help with various communications duties, with the intent to take over comms next school year. You would start by writing the ebulletin and managing the PJPAC WhatsApp group, and eventually train on the website and other communications jobs. If you know WordPress, that would be a great benefit. 
 

To learn more about PAC Executive roles and figure out what would make a good fit for your skills and interests please refer to our bylaws. To express your interest or learn more, email info@ecolepjpac.com or chair@ecolepjpac.com.

Fun Lunch Distribution

We are looking for volunteers to help with Fun Lunch food distribution Mondays, Tuesdays, and Wednesdays from 12:00pm to 1:00pm. Without our amazing parent volunteers we would not be able to run this program. Please sign up here.
