Volunteer Opportunities

Parent Faculty Club (PFC) 

Springhill Elementary School Parent Faculty Club (Springhill PFC) is the primary link between parents, teachers and staff.  The PFC facilitates school volunteerism, hosts social events and fundraisers, publishes the e-newsletter Springhill Spotlight, and much more. Involvement is as little or as much as you'd like. By joining PFC, you will gain access to the online school directory and will be eligible to vote on the PFC budget. 

 

We highly encourage you to attend the PFC General Meetings! They are a great way to get to know the Board and to keep updated on everything Springhill. These meetings are currently being held on online platforms like Zoom so that everyone can safely access the information and engage in conversation in a “live” format. 

 

Communication at School

 

Springhill offers many ways to keep parents informed about our school. The most frequent communication methods are:

 

PFC Website

Peruse springhillpfc.org to download the school calendar, get in touch with PFC and committee representatives, school directory and more.

 

Springhill Spotlight

Make sure you are signed up to receive the Springhill Spotlight. This newsletter is emailed on Tuesdays and contains tons of important info. To opt-in, login to the PFC website, go to My Account, then Subscriptions. There you can subscribe to The Spotlight and other communications. 

 

Download the PFC App

In the App Store on your phone, search for “Membership Toolkit” and download the app. The app has the calendar and the directory - the best part is you can save contacts from the directory on to your phone. 

 

Room Parent Emails

Periodic emails, usually about time-sensitive events, will be sent to you by your room parent.

 

Springhill Elementary Website

Check out the Springhill Website. The Classroom pages have many links to documents you need and updates on what’s going on in class. 

 

Lafayette Partners in Education (LPIE)

Please consider donating to LPIE and also attending their meetings. LPIE is a community-based education foundation that financially supports an education rich in science, math, music, art, technology, foreign language, electives, and humanities. They also provide funding for support services such as PE specialists, instructional aides, counseling, professional development, and more.

 

Your donation is an investment in your child and the children of Lafayette. State funding continues to remain inadequate. Your donation to LPIE helps bridge that gap, allowing our schools to educate our children at the level that our community demands by covering underfunded programs. There is an immediate payoff – your donations this year will fund academic and enrichment programs for your student(s) this year-including online education development, delivery and access. 

 

In short, LPIE is critical to the success of our schools. Please support them! Visit https://www.lpie.org/ to learn more.
