We are the parents, guardians and teachers of the students of Swasey Central School. Membership is open to anyone who is interested in being involved. Our mission is to enhance the welfare and education of children at Swasey Central School. We promote active parent involvement in volunteer programs and fundraisers, as well as school and PFG sponsored activities. We assist administration in obtaining necessary educational and recreational equipment and materials.
Whether you’d like to help a little or a lot, the PFG NEEDS YOU! Its fun, it’s free, it’s informative, and you can develop some great friendships with other parents- not to mention it’s an awesome investment in our children and their education! Here are just some of the ways that you can get involved:
Volunteer - Whether you’d like to really get involved and help several times throughout the year, or even if you just want to help once or twice, there is a spot for you! At various times throughout the year- especially during our fundraiser events- we need volunteers to help with things like distributing items to the classrooms, helping with a Community Event etc. These are generally short periods ranging anywhere from 30 minutes to a couple hours, and any time that you can contribute is GREATLY appreciated. The more hands we have helping, the less time for everyone. This is a great way for parents or even grandparents to get involved! Consider becoming a volunteer today!
Grade Liaison - Grade liaisons are responsible for maintaining open dialog with teachers to help organize and implement the volunteer needs for their classrooms. There will be one grade liaison per teacher, PE, Art, and Music. This is a great way to get involved in the volunteer program!
Board Member - Do you want to dive in full-time and really make a difference? Consider becoming a PFG Board Member for the upcoming school year.
Get involved with the PFG today! Remember, together we can make a difference!
Simple. Come to a meeting! If you have a child at SCS, you are a member of the PFG!! The PFG meets the third Monday of every month. Meetings begin at 6:00pm in the Swasey School Library.
Fundraiser - Fundraising is an extremely important part of the PFG. Our Fall and Spring fundraiser events generate the majority of the funds raised by the PFG. This money helps us to reach our goal of providing support for our children’s school and helping them to have the absolute best educational experience possible. Your support of our fundraiser efforts is one of the greatest ways to get involved! Some parents have expressed a desire to simply make a donation to the PFG in lieu of having their children participate in sales events. These donations are always welcome!!
