Volunteers are Essential!

If you want to support kids and teachers and have fun doing it, contact us! Small jobs, big jobs - both are available! Join a committee or the Board. Plan events, review grant requests, work with finances, write letters and news articles, design posters, visit schools, go on a KDT! trip, review policies and procedures, join the nominating committee. Whatever your interest - we need you! ipei@ipei.org

IPEI is seeking community members to become involved with its board of directors, committees, affiliates and programs. In keeping with our mission to connect schools and community and our all-volunteer management, we need participation by citizens who represent the community and who share a strong commitment to our local public schools. Current volunteers bring unique skills and perspectives to our roles. Some have children in our schools, some do not. Some have educational backgrounds, some do not. Some have "day jobs," some do not. If you would like to know more about how you can participate, email us or call 256-IPEI (4734). Volunteers are needed in the following areas:
