VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITIES…

PAC Ambassador’s Needed! PAC Ambassador’s main purpose is to enhance and promote communication between parents and the PAC, by being the “go” person if there are any general questions or concerns, posters to put up on the outside of the classroom door, information to remind or relay to families during drop off and pick up. This position helps to facilitate the flow of information regarding PAC fundraisers.  We need one parent/guardian to be assigned for each class to be sure the communication link is strong.

A LMCS PAC Ambassador Rep is:
·       Organized and self initiated
·       Someone with regular access to email and phone
·       Willing to reach all parent/guardian(s) of the class including those without email.
