The second part of our mission is to support our teachers. We assign volunteers to be a "Resource" to teachers and to assist with projects, photocopying, etc. In addition, we also organize volunteers for cafeteria duty. We value strong communication with the Educators at McGraw Elementary School and try to meet their needs so that they may provide the best learning experience possible for our children
