House Resolution No. 88.
A resolution to declare April 22-26, 2013, as Public School Volunteer Week in the state of Michigan.
Whereas, Parent and community involvement is a significant factor in the success of schools; and
Whereas, During the past decade, school systems throughout the country have accepted the services of dedicated volunteers to assist professional educators, and these volunteers have offered their time, encouragement, and meaningful contact with students; and
Whereas, By becoming a volunteer, parents and community members are providing an invaluable contribution to the education of our students; and
Whereas, Volunteers are called upon to assist teachers and staff with the day-to-day activities involved in providing a balanced education for our students and are an important part of a team that strives to ensure that each and every one of our students succeeds; and
Whereas, During the school year, countless volunteers are spending innumerable hours serving schools throughout Michigan as chaperones, mentors, after-school tutors, club leaders, booster club members, PTA and PTO members, guest speakers, classroom helpers, athletics coaches, and in countless other ways; now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the House of Representatives, That the members of this legislative body declare April 22-26, 2013, as Public School Volunteer Week in the state of Michigan. We urge all citizens to join in this observance.
