It is because of all the wonderful parent volunteers that we are able to run math stations, computer stations and group checkout. When parents volunteer they may find themselves working with children during activity times or perfoming LRC tasks such as checking in books or shelving them. Every year in September, all the parents are invited to attend a tea in the LRC where they learn what it means to be a LRC volunteer. There is a Home and School committee assigned just to serve as a liason between parent volunteers and the LRC staff. Our LRC contains a lab of 30 Macintosh Computers.
Classes have a regular scheduled time each week to come down and work in the lab.
With the help of LRC Staff, Classroom Teachers, and Parent Volunteers, the students work on word processing, math and reading games, and research work on the Internet. In each grade level area there are seven additional computers for students to work on throughout the day. These computers in the pod areas were purchased by our Home and School.
