The Annual Auction is Unity School’s premier fundraiser of the year and promises to be a spectacular evening as we celebrate another year of success and camaraderie! The night features dinner, dancing, a spirited DJ, and silent & live auctions!  Many volunteers are needed to help prepare for this event by soliciting for ads and auction items, decorating the promo booth, selling raffle tickets, decorating the ballroom and setting up the silent auction room at the hotel the morning of the event. You can sign up for as little or as much as your time allows.

Many parent volunteers are needed to encourage and supervise the children at each Field Day station.  Enjoy a day of fun with the children.  Please contact Sharon Gerry at x144 for more information.

Participate in a wonderful breakfast to honor our teachers and staff for all of their efforts throughout the year. Room parents and other volunteers are needed in the classroom while teachers are enjoying their breakfast.

All classrooms are asked to bring specific food items, cook/bake one of our themed signature dishes or make a cash donation for the Chairs to purchase the catered food items.

Volunteers are needed for the Care & Support Team. In each classroom, Care and Support representatives help to organize outreach efforts within the classroom as needed. Classroom representatives might not be called upon during the school year, yet, “being on call” and “ready as needed” is an important function of the Care and Support process.

Through your generosity, the Annual Fund assures that our children are provided with exemplary programs including Lessons in Living, Drama, Athletics and Art.  Volunteers from each class are chosen to educate their fellow parents as to the purpose of Annual Giving so we can unite in shared values to build our school community.
