Co-chair needed!

Steller Parent Group is actively recruiting for a co-chair to join Dee Dee Zobian this year and continue into the 2024/2025 school year.

This is an opportunity to learn about the position and what is involved from an experienced leader in a low pressure environment. Responsibilities are shared between co-chairs in a way to suit both volunteers.

We have an exciting year ahead of us with lots of interesting things going on including:

  • welcoming a new co-hort of 6th graders
  • implementing the Academy model of learning alongside ASD
  • 50th Anniversary Celebrations in September 
  • continuing to grow Steller Parent Group to meet the needs of our community

Please consider reaching out to learn more about this exciting opportunity. We are happy to meet with you and tell you more about the commitment (its not as much as you might think), as well as all the benefits of volunteering in our community.
