The teacher relied heavily on parent volunteers. I was in her class one day a week (every week) for five hours. It was exhausting but I knew that she REALLY appreciated the extra hands and having someone who worked well with the kiddos.
Kudos to you and other parents who volunteer. Just curious, is there any kind of training or orientation parents have to do before they can volunteer?
