Obama School Ministry TeamMembers and friends of Unity Church have a unique opportunity to make a positive difference in our community. The students and staff of Barack and Michelle Obama Elementary School (across the street) need our help and support. As a classroom volunteer you can make a difference in two ways: creating a positive relationship with a child helps build the child’s confidence and feelings of self-worth, and tutoring helps build the child’s academic achievement. In addition, there are other ways to be involved. The teachers and children are enthusiastic about our volunteers and we’d like you to consider joining us.
Get started in April, for beginning your service in September! Email Nancy Heege at nancyheege@cs.com to request a volunteer preference form and a Saint Paul schools background investigation form. Forms that are returned by April 30 will be processed by the school district this spring; forms returned after April 30 will be delayed. Note: each volunteer will be asked to pay $12 for the background check this year. Obama Elementary also has a receipt box at Kowalski’s on Grand Avenue. If you happen to shop there, please put your grocery receipts in the donation box at the checkout area. Each receipt adds up to money for Obama Elementary!
