Ways to Volunteer

  • Popcorn and Prep | Thurs. March 27 from 6-7pm | DTS Library
    Come join us in helping our teachers with classroom prep needs. We’ll be copying, laminating, cutting, and more to help our wonderful DTS teachers spend less time on these administrative tasks. Did you know many DTS teachers come in on their weekends to complete all the prep work needed for their teaching? Let’s lessen their load. This is also a great way to connect with other DTS parents. We’ll have snacks and all the supplies needed. While we love children, please bring a quiet activity for them to do during this time and plan to keep them supervised.
  • Help our DTS Fundraising Auction Efforts
    • Email us to provide a donation of goods or services for our silent or live auction
    • Join our Fundraising Committee to learn how you can help us run a successful event to raise essential funding for the next 2 school years at DTS. We need at least 5-10 individuals ready to help plan and execute the Auction. (Speaking of our Auction, make sure you save the date for our biennial auction scheduled on May 2, 2025 at 6pm at Ricochet.)
