Your involvement makes a difference

To view the video please revisit this web page with a desktop web browser that has the latest version of Adobe Flash Player installed.

The more involved you are in your children's learning, the more successful they will be in school. But your involvement also enhances your family life. There are many ways you can be involved. For example,

  • talk to your children every day about learning and what they are doing in school
  • read with your children every day and let them see you reading for fun
  • help your children with homework by making sure they have the time each day to complete it
  • show your child that you value education and enjoy visiting the school
  • get to know your child's principal and teachers
  • meet your child's friends and get to know other parents
  • share your time and talents by volunteering

Volunteering is one way to help support our school and all of our students. Not all volunteer tasks need to be done at the school, or even during the day. Many volunteers complete tasks at home. No matter how much or how little time you have available, your help is appreciated.

Pizza Day Volunteers Needed

Dear Parents of Whitehorn Students,

In the past, Whitehorn has held Pizza Days twice a month as a fundraiser run by the staff.  These funds went into bringing performances into the school for the students.  The school council is looking to take over running Pizza Days but we need dedicated parent volunteers that are available during the school day.

Some of the work that will be involved includes the following:

1) Preparing order forms

2) Tallying order forms

3) Counting money

4) Calling in pizza order

5) Receive and distribute pizza to students

If you're interested in helping, please send an email to whitehornps.council@peelsb.com.  Additionally, to do any volunteering at the school, it is board regulation that you get a criminal record check. To get the necessary forms, please contact either Mrs. Patterson or Mrs. Brown at the school.   They can provide you with a form that you need to fill out and bring to a police station for processing.  The results of the check will need to be sent to the school board directly and your name will be added to the volunteer list.
