AVS Parent Group Nominating Committee

The Parent Group is seeking a small, diverse group of parents to help recruit volunteers for the 2020-2021 Executive Committee and other roles between now and early March. This key but limited job is an opportunity to get to know more parents and learn about how the Parent Group works.

Spring Gala and Auction - Various Parent Leads

Come be an integral part of the Parent Group's most important fundraising event of the year! This year, we have four awesome Co-Chairs and are looking for Parent Leads in the following areas: Communications (emails, website updates, signage), Ticket Sales and Marketing, Live and Silent Auction Donations, Class Project Donations, Corporate Donations, and Day-of Volunteer Management. Bring your creativity and skills to work for AVS while getting to know people throughout the community! Depending on area of interest, work can be light and steady and then usually busy in the 2-3 weeks prior to the Gala on April 4.

Lower School Sports Chair and Sports Team Coordinators

Approximately 40% of our LS students participate in organized sports with AVS, and we need lots of parents to keep all our various sports programs afloat. Sports Team Coordinators solicit team members and enroll teams in leagues well in advance of the season and help coordinate parent volunteers and coaches. The Sports Chair works with the school to help ensure the sports program, BookEnds, and use of school facilities are in sync, serves as a champion and resource for Sports Team Coordinators as needed, and facilitates faculty involvement in LS sports. If you love to see our Aviators challenge themselves physically, persevere, and learn good sportsmanship, please join us! No athletic prowess necessary.

Cultural Community Meeting Contributors

Interested in sharing your family’s cultural traditions or important holidays with the school community? If our community members would like to share their family’s cultural traditions or important holidays, they are welcome to propose a presentation to the school's leadership team. The cultural/historical-themed presentation may take place in your child(ren)’s classroom or with the entire community, depending on the timing, resources, and volunteer commitment. 

Hospitality Team

The AVS LS and MS Hospitality Teams help to coordinate and procure food, drink, and supplies for Parent Group events. We're looking for a small group at each campus to take on this key role. 

Middle School Parent Volunteers

If you're a parent of a Middle School AVS student, and you're willing to lend a hand from time to time with events, faculty appreciation, auction class projects, or anything else that comes up, we'd love to hear from you. We're putting together a pool of parents who are willing to be contacted about opportunities to help with discrete projects or tasks. Let us know your interests and your schedule constraints. Thanks!
