PTO Volunteer Opportunities
To maintain a vibrant organization that can significantly assist BHS students, families, and staff, we need your help in the following areas.
Planning Committee for Special Events
This committee organizes the much-appreciated annual PTO-sponsored October staff-appreciation breakfast and June staff-appreciation luncheon. If you are interested in working at one of these events and/or can donate food please contact one of the co-chairs, JoAnn Winston (joann@winstonfamily.com 617/734-1991) or Mimi Levine (mimilvn@rcn.com 617/566-1937).
Friends of Performing Arts (FOPA)
The performing arts encompass instrumental music, vocal music, drama, and dance. Each of these areas needs help with performance assistance, student transportation, and providing refreshments at performances and events. Co-chairs: Deborah Funkhouser, Debdhouser@aol.com, 617-879-3047, and Elizabeth Nessen, comlawjp@aol.com, 617-277-3633.
After the Prom Party (ATPP)
A cast of many is needed for this annual party for seniors! This event has provided a safe, fun, and substance-free after-prom environment for Brookline students for the past seventeen years. We need parent volunteers from every grade to assist with fundraising, decorations, food, program, chaperoning, and set-up and clean-up for one of the most exciting and anticipated events of the year. Traditionally, junior parents host and chaperone the party (Tuesday, June 2, 2009) with Brookline Recreation Department employees and BHS faculty. This is an opportunity to meet and work with parents from every grade. Volunteers are need for the following committees:
- Prize committee. This committee solicits donations of items to be raffled as prizes at the party. You need to be organized, comfortable asking for things, often more than once, and willing to follow up.
- Setup and breakdown committee. This committee works the day of the party setting up the Tappan gyms, where the party is held, and taking the party down beginning at 6:00 the morning after the party.
- Decoration committee. This committee designs the party according to the theme and creates the decorations.
- Fundraising committee. This committee needs help stuffing envelopes and working at a phonathon.
- Host committee. This committee needs parents (not of seniors though) who can help at the party (Tuesday night, May 27 – Wednesday morning, May 28) , either for the whole night from midnight to 5:00 am or in shifts from midnight to 2:30am and 2:30 am to 5:00 am.
To be a part of this very important corps of volunteers, contact one of the party co-chairs, Joan Hyde (CIHMD@aol.com) or Ann Devlin (Ann_devlin@hotmail.com).
