Thank You to Our Volunteers!聽聽

Each year, thousands of incredible volunteers support our schools, and bring to life the mission, vision, and values of our school board.聽

Through their caring actions and giving spirit, volunteers have a significant impact on the well-being of the school community and the overall educational experience of students across all grade levels. Whether they are supporting classroom activities or field trips, coordinating nutrition programs, planning fundraising initiatives, supporting School Council, extra-curriculars or promoting community and parent engagement 鈥 the work of volunteers and their presence truly brightens the days of students and enhances the opportunities that are available to them both inside and outside the classroom.

We extend our appreciation to all volunteers for being valued partners in education, and for sharing their time, talents, and expertise to support students and the KPR community.聽

As part of our continued recognition of National Volunteer Week this month, schools were invited to nominate outstanding volunteers for the annual Volunteer Accolade Awards. From these nominations, a total of nine award recipients were chosen, and recognized for their exceptional volunteer service at this week鈥檚 Board meeting.聽聽

We are excited to recognize three passionate volunteers from the Clarington region of our school board. Each of these volunteers have gone above and beyond in their volunteer service and were presented with Accolade Awards at the April Board meeting.聽

Some of her many valuable contributions over the past several years have included leading the school book fair, attending field trips, organizing the lost and found, providing literacy support for classes, helping with hot lunches multiple times a week, and participating as an active member on School Council. Cassie is recognized for always going out of her way to support the school community 鈥 even purchasing and donating clothing to ensure all students are warm at recess during the cold winter months! 鈥淲e do not know how our school would run without her!鈥 shares Vickie Mazzocchi, Vice-Principal.聽
