EAGLE EXTRAS HELP NEEDED!
Looking for a detail-oriented person to work with me as Co-Chair of the Eagle Extras committee.  Help manage and develop Irving’s already successful afterschool program.  Beginning now, if possible, or this summer.  I will train.  *I’m pretty nice to work with.*  Co-Chair will have all of my support and a choice of responsibilities. Procedures and policies are well-established and many job activities will rely on adapting what is already in place.
 
Responsibilities to choose from include:
 
1)  Planning the Fall, Winter, and Spring sessions, including seeking/confirming class proposals; planning cost estimates, budget, and schedules; creating course descriptions and registration packets; and securing onsite coordinators and rooms/spaces for classes. 
 
2)  Managing class registrations, including tracking/recording all class registrations; sending confirmation emails and informational class letters; following up on missing payments, waivers, etc.; creating class rosters; creating attendance sheets, emergency contact info, etc for each class, and assembling binders/folders for instructors and onsite coordinators.
 
3)  Managing general emails and day-to-day operations during sessions.
 
Time commitment is estimated to be 0-3 hours/week during off times, and 3-12 hours/week during registration, registration prep, and beginning of the Fall, Winter and Spring sessions.
 
Feel free to email me with any questions about this volunteer position and responsibilities.

Are you ready to party, Irving?
New to the auction this year we are selling tickets to parties hosted by teachers and parents. The parties can be for kids or adults. Here is a sneak peak of some of the fun parties that Irving students can participate in! We hope parents offer to host parties as well as our amazing Irving staff! Think of hosting a themed dinner party at your house, or a game night for grown-ups, or share a hobby. We have such a great community so this should be a ton of fun! Details and the sign-up form are in this document.

What’s an auction without donations?!
The silent auction is our biggest PTO fundraiser. To make this event a success we need help with donations. Feel free to contact hanoconnor@gmail.com if you have anything to donate. We need all donations by February 13, 2014.

What’s a bingo game without prizes?!
House Cleaning? The Fun Fair Committee is looking for new items to be used for Bingo Prizes. Small Items such as fast food toys, party favors, noisemakers, promotional items, small books/coloring books, new items laying around the house that are not being used by your children would be perfect Bingo Prizes. Drop off your items in the school’s Front Office, or bring them to the lunchroom the morning of the Fun Fair.

Raffle Prizes!
If you have, or know someone that has, a business that would like to donate a prize for the Fun Fair Raffle or Grand Prize drawing, we are looking for those items as well. Anything from small to large electronics items to Gift Certificates would be tremendous and they will receive heaps of exposure and gratitude from the Irving School Family. Contact irvingfunfair@gmail.com

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR MAKING THIS A GREAT DAY!
