Spelling Bee Co-Lead

We’re gearing up to host another Spelling Bee next school year. We’d love to have another co-chair  shadow our current lead so the Spelling Bee tradition at Cherry Crest can continue beyond ’24-’25.

Join the PTSA Board

We’re looking for a new VP Comms to join the PTSA Board. No experience is needed — just a growth mindset and appetite to learn and contribute. You’ll get a direct say on what happens in the PTSA and help make a difference at Cherry Crest. The time commitment is estimated to be <5 hours per month.

Volunteer Appreciation Tea & Breakfast

We invite you to join us for a light breakfast, tea, and coffee, to say thanks for all you do for our teachers, staff, and students at Cherry Crest! Thank you for volunteering with us this year — be it at Field Trips, in the classroom, planning events, putting together the Chatter, and everything in between!

When: Thursday, June 6th @ 7:30-9:30 AM
