Recruiting for Steller Parent Group Positions Now

It’s that time of year – we are recruiting for the 2024-2025 Steller Parent Group! 

We currently have open positions to work alongside our current board, learn the ropes and share the work load: 

  • a co-chair to work alongside Dee Dee 
  • a co-treasurer to work alongside Kirsten 

The idea behind having two co-positions is so that there is always one more experienced person with institutional knowledge so that no one has to come in and figure everything out on their own. How each pair choses to divide the work is up to them. You do not need any experience in either position – just a desire to contribute and willingness to learn.

If you are interested in either position please reach out! We are a friendly group and have lots of fun while we work together to make Steller a great place of learning for our students. 

We look forward to hearing from you!
