HSA JOBS
HSA Jobs require a bit more commitment than being on a Working Group as they involve managing a bigger task or performing a certain task on a regular basis. Most jobs can be split up between two or more people.
5K Sponsorship Manager: This role is active from January to May and entails contacting businesses to renew their 5K T-shirt sponsorships and soliciting new businesses for either sponsorship or prize donations.
Time commitment: approx. 20 hours over 4 months
Bookkeeper: This role assists the Treasurer in inputting donations and purchases into the correct categories in Membership Toolkit.

Time commitment: approx. 15 hours over 3 months
Room Parent: Each classroom teacher has 1 - 2 room parents who send periodic messages from the Room Parent Coordinator to the parent / guardian class list, assist the teacher with projects as needed, and plan occasional class playdates and meetups.
Time commitment: approx. 1 - 2 hours / month
School Gear Manager: T-shirts and school branded merchandise get ordered a few times a year. The manager also fulfills weekly orders.
Time commitment: approx. 4 hours / order + 1 hour / week
School Store Manager: Setting up a school store is a new idea which will require a committed volunteer and helpers to initiate and launch. Items such as snacks, school supplies, school branded merchandise and gear could be sold at sporting and after-school events and/or after school weekly or monthly. The manager would order the items to be sold and set up and manage a volunteer schedule.
Time commitment: hard to tell at this point
Social Media Moderator: We will need a new group of parents to help moderate the HSA Facebook and Twitter pages since all of the parents who were involved with social media had graduating students in 2023! One task involves scheduling occasional posts throughout the week, based on the weekly e-Pony.
Time commitment: approx. 1 - 2 hours / week
Translator: While the School District has employees who travel to schools to do translating work, the process can take a long time. We could use translators who are able to translate various flyers and communications on a much shorter timeline.
