VOLUNTEERS Making the decision to volunteer your time and talents to the students of the Spring Grove Area School District is a very honorable one and a decision with which we hope you will be pleased.
Board Policy states that all volunteers working with school children must secure State Police and Child Abuse History Clearances AND have a tuberculosis screening before initiating volunteer activities. 2008-2009 Volunteer ID cards were sent to all the volunteers who completed the process and/or logged hours for the 07-08 school year. If anyone did not receive a card, please contact Lisa Smith at SMITHL@sgasd.org. Also, all the information and forms you need to apply for clearances can be found on the district web site.

GENERAL MILLS BOX TOPS FOR EDUCATION
We were originally going to collect these for the Music Boosters and have since found out that we are ineligible to collect on them since General Mills only opens this to grades K - 8. However, if you or anyone you know has box tops that you have been collecting, we will be giving these to the Middle School. This is the only out of school fundraiser they do. There will be containers placed in the band and choral rooms for collection. Thank You!
