Parent Participation

The Importance of Parents at School

At Sundance we appreciates the vital role parents play in developing the community of the school. We consider the concept of community to be an essential component in the education of each child
When parents volunteer their time and resources, and attend a wide range of social events and celebrations, children get to know the families of their friends and grow up with a strong sense of how a community operates

Ways Parents Participate

• Annual St. Jude’s Trike-A-Thon fundraiser
• Field trip chaperones and drivers
• Assistance with events
• Preparing snacks
• Helping out with Garden Day
• Reading stories or sharing a special talent with their child’s class

There are limitless ways that parents can be involved, and Sundance welcomes any new ideas that parents may have. The school has minimum annual participation requirements based on program enrollment choice

• Full day = 25 hours
• Family (more than one child enrolled) = 30 hours

Grandparents, extended family, and friends are welcome to participate and be a part of our school community as well!

As per SB792, all parents who volunteer in the classroom need to show they have had the measles and pertussis vaccine
