CREATING BULLETIN BOARDS - for your child's grade level. Bulletin boards change approximately every 6 weeks. You do not need to commit to every board change.

We can send home things like sorting items, cutting, etc for you to help our staff! (Please note - no children are permitted in the workroom, this is an Exley rule. Workroom is one volunteer opportunity where younger siblings are not permitted to come with you)
LITERACY LIBRARY - The Literacy Library contains more than 30,000 resources for teachers to use. Sets of leveled books are available for teachers to check out so they can work with children in small groups on their reading level. We need volunteers throughout the year for sorting, shelving, organizing, teacher check in and check out, and end of the year inventory. Ideally, Ms Frederick would like to have someone come by 1 to 2 times per week during the school year on any day that you choose. The Literacy Library is located in room 707 right across from the 3rd grade pod. *Disclaimer - Children do not check out books from the Literacy Library, so there is not a “class check out time” sign up. ***This is a year long commitment to volunteer 1 - 2 days a week in the Literacy Library***
