Copycats
Copycats is looking for 2-3 more volunteers to participate in this year's Copycat Program. This is a wonderful way to get involved and help teachers directly!
Copycats make copies and complete other projects needed by teachers. Shifts are weekly for a 1-hour period. Shifts are 9-10 am, 10-11 am or 2-3 pm and we are trying to fill slots on Tuesdays/Wednesdays. There is one opening spot per session, so that teachers are also able to come in during their planning time to make copies.
If you would like to get involved, please fill out the very brief survey below:
If you have any questions, please reach out directly to Kelly Larson at copycats@russellleepta.org.
