Janus parent involvement

One of the unique aspects of The Janus School experience is that the involvement of parents is not only welcomed but encouraged.

At Janus, the personal investment of all parents in their children's education is an integral part of the school's philosophy. Gifts of volunteer time and financial resources provide invaluable support for the school. Such involvement also gives our parents a better understanding of Janus, as well as providing an avenue to get to know other parents, faculty members, and staff.

There are many opportunities for parents to share their talents with students and staff. From a short-term commitment like baking cookies for receptions to serving on the Raising Spirits Committee that is responsible for the annual dinner/auction, parents are essential to Janus' success.

Most jobs do not require a long-term commitment. However, some jobs are available for volunteers who would like to be involved on a regular basis. Some of the areas where volunteers are needed include:

• Golf Outing
• "Raising Spirits" dinner/auction
• "Strikes For Success" bowling event
• Staff Appreciation Week
• Grandparents'/Special Friend's Day
• Frolicking Friday and/or Laserdome
• Gardening
• Library assistance
• Receptions for Science and Social Studies Fairs, Fine Arts Fair, and graduation

Parent volunteer opportunities are coordinated through the Office of Development and Parent Relations. For more information, contact Barbara Tritt at btritt@thejanusschool.org.
