Cheers To Volunteers! – Concerned Mothers Group at High Aspirations

Members of the Concerned Mothers Group at High Aspirations have one monthly meeting, but they often accompany their sons to the Saturday morning meetings. They take attendance, set up and serve lunch, and oversee the cleaning of the tables, which is done by the students. In addition, they assist with planning special events and chaperoning field trips. Their actions create a valued support system within the High Aspirations organization.
