Here’s a friendly reminder that Friday is early release. Students are released at 1:45 PM. Thank you for remembering!

YG Football Volunteer Request 

Hi YG families!

It’s been a busy and profitable season at the UO Beverage Booth. The PTO has raised approximately $17,000 through serving at the games! Can you imagine how many other fundraisers our students would need to complete to match that?

We have a dedicated, regular volunteer crew that come back year after year and work every game. We’re looking for new people to come join the fun, meet parents, and help support our wonderful kids. There are just two games left this season, on November 12th and 19th, so two more chances to have a blast supporting YG!

If you still need to get your OLCC permit, let us help you get started! We’re happy to walk anyone through the steps. After that, you don’t have to renew it for another 5 years. PTO will reimburse you for the class and permit costs. We can also help navigate the organized chaos of getting to the YG booth on game days.

We know the OLCC class, plus game day volunteering, is a big time commitment. As of right now, we don’t have a way to get volunteers inside the stadium after kickoff. However, any amount of time is helpful! For example, those who have availability to set up don’t have to stay to clean up and vice versa.

Please sign up below:

November 12th game – https://volunteersignup.org/EQJ49

November 19th game – https://volunteersignup.org/LQKK7

Thank you for your continued support.

Best wishes,

YG PTO

Kelly Middle School Personal Hygiene Drive

On October 24th, Kelly Middle School started a Personal Hygiene Drive to benefit the Eugene Mission. They are collecting hair care products, soap, tooth brushes, toothpaste, nail care products, menstruation products, deodorant, shaving accessories, and anything that keeps us and our bodies clean. The drive goes until November 16th and the donation bins are at the main KMS/YG entrance and in the main hallway of KMS.

Moana The Musical

Rose Children’s Theatre spent months collaborating with Pacific Islanders in the community and is thrilled to be bringing Moana to life onstage as she sets sail across the Pacific to save her village and discover the truth about her heritage. With empowering messages of bravery and selflessness, Moana JR. is sure to bring out the hero within each of us.  Come support the cast of talented kids from 3^rd through 10^th grade with this epic experience for your eyes and ears.

Volunteer at Yujin Gakuen

Many of our parents asked what steps they need to take to volunteer at school. Please see the links below or visit the 4J webpage “Volunteer in the Eugene District 4J.”

As a parent or guardian, you may wonder how you can get involved in your child’s education. One great way to do this is by volunteering in the Eugene District 4J schools. Volunteering offers many benefits for both you and your child. It’s a great way to meet other parents and get to know the teachers and staff at your child’s school. It can also be a fun and rewarding way to spend some time with your child.

If you’re interested in volunteering, there are a few things you need to do. First, you’ll need to complete a background check. You can find more information about this on the 4J website. You’ll also need to complete a mandatory training session. Once you’ve done these things, you’ll be ready to start volunteering.

So why not give it a try? Volunteering is a great. See the links below to get started or visit “Volunteer in the Eugene District 4J.”
