High School Volunteers Needed for the Carnival
Do you know a high school student in need of volunteer hours? We are looking for volunteers for the Fall Carnival. High School volunteers help run events, monitor the play areas, and help out in a variety of other ways.
Students can feel free to sign up for multiple times if they would like. Dr. Freed will contact each volunteer via email the week prior to the carnival to verify their involvement. Students will receive a letter confirming their volunteer hours following the event to use for any volunteer hour tracking they may need.
Pinnacle Peak Carnival Volunteer Sign Up Form
We appreciate their willingness to help. Our students, staff, and parents are excited to see high school students helping out!
National School Bus Safety Week is October 17-21
Hello from your UPC Outreach Team,
We all know how hard our bus drivers are working with the shortage and that driving a bus is not an easy job. National School Bus Safety Week is October 17-21st. You can find more information about the week HERE. Please help show our bus drivers how much they are appreciated. A few ideas are:
- kids can draw pictures or write notes to their drivers
- give cards or a small gift to your drivers
If you have any questions, please contact us at Outreach@pvupc.org.
Thank you to everyone who does things continuously for our PVUSD community!
