Tutoring through South Eugene High School's Rotary Interact Club

This is a group of high school students dedicated to making positive change in the community. As the school year begins, they wanted to reach out to you about opportunities for collaboration with their club. Their tutoring department will be running this year with the hopes of helping elementary and middle school students who may be struggling or need some extra help in school. They have tutors in a series of subjects and are ready to help students however possible. If you are interested, please fill out the Tutoring Interest Form: https://forms.gle/u13CgexDojryRSfw7

OBOB 2024-25

Got OBOB Love? Have the time to volunteer? We have the position for you...OBOB Parent Lead. The OBOB parent Lead helps to collect permission slips, forms teams, prints OBOB content (here at school), oversees in-school battles, update brackets, attends regional battles with the winning school team and possibly state.

Does this person do it alone? I'm glad you asked. No. Ginger Topize (OBOB Teacher Lead) guides next steps. The Parent Lead guides a team of parent volunteers who help with all these tasks. The lead manages the team in making sure it all gets done within the guidelines and within the schedule.

If you feel up for volunteering for OBOB as the Lead or as a Team Member, please email Ginger Topize at topize_g@4j.lane.edu to express your interest.

Building and Field Trip Volunteers

Greetings!

First, I want to apologize for the missed meeting last week. The District is trying out Google Meet and the application did not seem to respond when I tried to log in from home. For next week, I am offering three Volunteer Orientations: 9/17 @ 4pm, 9/18 @ 6pm, 9/19 @ 4pm. All will be on Zoom.

Nous sommes mieux ensemble!
