Welcome to the CAPTIVATE program!
On behalf of the Tidioute Community Charter School we would like to welcome
you to our volunteer program.
Volunteers are a large and very important part of the lifeblood of our charter
school. Your willingness to help make a difference is appreciated more than
you know! We strongly encourage each family to make a commitment to contribute
a minimum of 10 hours a year to the school by volunteering in one or more
areas of the school's operation.
Your ideas, comments and suggestions are always welcome. It is our goal to
make the Tidioute Community Charter School as efficient and comfortable as
possible not only for the students and teachers, but for the volunteers and
parents who will be lending their time and talents to benefit this school.
QUICK FAQS
What is CAPTIVATE?
CAPTIVATE stands for Community and Parents Together Involved in Volunteering
and Teaching Excellence.
Who We Are & What We Do?
When the Tidioute Community Charter School was founded in
2005, its founders recognized that parent participation was a key component
in student success in school. Since the beginning, parent participation has
been a major reason for the school's growth and success.
In addition, parents become an integral resource used to provide a quality
education to our students while reducing operating costs. We strongly encourage
each family to make a commitment to contribute a minimum of 10 hours a year
to the school by volunteering in one or more areas of the school's operation.
Being with the students helps families experience and understand the unique
philosophy of the school.
There are many opportunities for parents and family members to volunteer at
our school and fulfill their hours. Volunteers work in the school office,
in the classroom, go on field trips, in the Student Store and at sports events.
Volunteers coordinate and work on fundraisers. Families work on school beautification
by assisting with landscaping projects, building projects and clean up of
the school grounds.
What is the mission?
The mission of the CAPTIVATE Program is to bring together
