Our first monthly meeting will be Wednesday, October 14th, at 5:15 p.m. at the school, and we would love to see some new faces!

There are so many different ways to help throughout the school year, and volunteering does not have to mean a big time commitment. Whether you can help regularly, once in a while, at one event, from home, or just when something fits your schedule—we will happily take whatever you can give! Every bit of help makes a difference. 💙

Rise and shine, Parkside families! ☀️

School breakfast programs play a critical role is student health, academic performance, and overall school culture. In the past, Parkside’s Breakfast has fed our students 4 days a week, serving up delicious morning options like smoothies, toast with cheese, yogurt tubes, muffins, croissants, and fruit bars! 🥐🧀

This program is run entirely by volunteers. To keep this valuable program running smoothly and ensuring we can continue 4 days a week, we are in need of more volunteers!

💙 schedule: 7:30 AM - 8:30 AM (just 1 hour!)
💙 frequency: 1 morning a week
💙 duties: preparing toast for classrooms

Make a big difference in just 60 minutes! If you are interested in joining our breakfast program team, please email Danielle Keough-Delgado at [email protected]

We are looking forward to another amazing year at Parkside!
