Volunteering is a cornerstone of PAGE and The Super Saturday Program. The program is run entirely by parents and guardians who volunteer their time and talents to serve the gifted children of the Cincinnati area. Overall, it is a big job, but many hands make light work. All are asked to contribute to the success of this program. Here are some of the ways in which you can help:
On Saturday On-Site
Classes are hands-on making assistance important for the children’s success and safety. We ask that at least one grown-up, other than teacher, is present each week in each classroom of students under ten years old for the safety of students and the smooth running of class activities. For classrooms with students ten years old and older, the teacher may determine grown-up assistance is not needed. If every parent and guardian signs up to volunteer in their child’s classroom one Saturday of each session, teachers will have all the help they need. The first week of classes, please fill out the sign-up sheet in your child’s classroom.
Help is also needed before class with set-up, during class with smooth operations, or after class with clean-up. Please use the SignUpGenius to volunteer for specific tasks on available days.
In The Program
As children grow up and families move on to new challenges in supporting them, the program will always have a need for new committed volunteers. As the program grows to better serve more children, our volunteering time and knowledge needs grow as well.
