PTA enrichment volunteer needed – SSL hours available!

Please help the BMES PTA enrichment committee continue the quality lineup of after-school programs you’ve come to expect. We are looking for one dedicated volunteer to help with data entry and organization in the next 12 months, starting next week. This could be a parent or even a BMES sibling who wants to earn SSL hours. Ideally someone very detail-oriented since it will be database work.
If you’re interested or know someone who is, please contact Kakki Lewis at [email protected]
