Pod Parents is a volunteer program where parent(s)/guardian(s) assist any participating teachers & staff with projects, tasks, and/or other busy work. Volunteers may float amongst the six (6) pods (K - 5th grades), the Main Office and the Library to complete any work during their designated time slot.
Teachers & Staff are looking for help at the following times:

https://www.signupgenius.com/go/10C0F4EADA72FA1FFC16-54111802-podparents
When you arrive at the school, please:
- Check into the front office for the Pod Parent directions. You will need your driver’s license and the completed volunteer registration form, which can be found on the SASD website.
- Once checked in, you can proceed to any of the Pods, where there will be instructions that participating teachers have left for the volunteers. Please note that all volunteer work will be completed in the Pod and not in the classrooms.
- Please do not enter the classrooms or otherwise disturb classroom learning. Further, younger siblings may not accompany the adults while volunteering at school.
- Please be respectful that pod parent volunteer time is not a time to hold individual conversations with your child's teacher or to visit the classroom of your child.
- Kindly check with Mrs. Smerecki (Main Office) and Mrs. Porco (Library) to see if they need assistance.
- If you have completed your work, and you are not able to find any additional work, please be advised that you are not required to stay for the full two (2) hours.
- Finally, if you are not able to complete the project, please leave the instructions and materials in the pod as you found them for the next group of volunteers to work on.
If you have any questions and/or concerns, you may reach out to Kristin Emmons at kristin.m.emmons@gmail.com
