Duff Elementary
CALLING ALL VOLUNTEERS!
We LOVE and APPRECIATE the many volunteers who give of their money, time, and talent to make Duff the most marvelous place! You helped copy, laminate, cut, count, deliver, chaperone field trips, support fundraisers, serve concessions, read with students, manage a talent show, and provide so numerous things for classrooms! What may seem like a small thing to you was an enormous help to a student, teacher, or fellow parent and your generosity makes such a difference and we want to celebrate you! Please join us Monday in the library for lunch so we can say Thank You in person!
