A group of Multicultural Parents Volunteers that help their schools with activities and programs.
Communicate.
Multicultural parent volunteers have their own school Information board at the front office in different languages. This includes school forms and community information.
Organize.
Multicultural parent volunteers help schools organize family activities: family-school positive relationship events, bingo nights, coffees and/or breakfasts with the principal, multicultural celebrations, technology information night, school tours, and welcoming events. They also recruit volunteers, and parents interested in getting involved with their child's education.
Build Student Success.
Their efforts bring families into the planning process and build family engagement. This results in academic success, reduces school discipline issues, and creates a foundation of a better and bright future for Marysville children, their families, and the community.
FOR MSD STAFF: You need a school team: Principal, 01 designated school staff (secretary, para-pro, counselor, other) and chose one or more candidates as your volunteers.
FOR PARENTS:
In 2007 Marysville School District Parent/Community Liaisons, Svetlana Pasonok (Russian) and Wendy Messarina (Spanish) created a group of English Language Learner (ELL) Parent Helpers. They recruited bilingual volunteer parents, provided orientation and training on the education system, and shared school and community resources in their native language. With the support community leaders and organizations like the Marysville City Council, Sea Mar, Everett Community College, Molina Health, The Goodwill, Marysville Public Library, Marysville Together Coalition, Marysville Police Department and Marysville Fire Department, they have made a difference in the lives of all Marysville School District families.
Es un programa para familias de Marysville que se organizan para ayudar en la escuela de sus hijos con actividades y eventos educativos y divertidos tales como: Tardes de Lectura, Ciencia y Matemáticas en Familia, Café con el Director, Festival de Comidas Diversas, Piñata, Bingo, Carnavales, y otros.
