So Much To Do, So Little Time!

House too quiet?  Lonely without the sound of tramping feet?  Why not spend some time at Ashaway School helping in the library!  Here are just a FEW of the benefits you'll enjoy:

  •     FREE parking!
  •     FREE volunteer id badge!
  •     FREE refreshment from our water bubbler!  (Ooo, so cold!)
  •     Studies have shown that parents who volunteer in their children's school libraries are 50% more likely to graduate from an Ivy League school! *

* Studies haven't really shown that parents who volunteer in their children's school libraries are 50% more likely to graduate from an Ivy League school, but who's to say that it isn't true?



 There are LOTS of tasks that need to be done, including: getting new books ready to go on the shelves, repairing "hurt" books, preparing bibliographies and typing lists, signing books in/out, creating book displays, and helping out during library classes.  If you're interested, please send me an email at kmman@chariho.net.
 

Please note that all volunteers now need to have a background check completed every year.  You can find this form online by going to http://www.chariho.k12.ri.us/registration-forms and clicking on "background screening".

Thanks, and I hope to hear from you!  :)

These books have been processed and are ready to go home with students thanks to the time and effort donated by Mrs. Macaruso (pictured above with her daughters)!
