These are the PTA board positions currently open for the 2024-25 school year. Please read through the descriptions and email our Volunteer Coordinators if you are interested in helping the Cub Run community in this capacity.
Vice President of Membership (elected position) As Vice President of Membership, you hold the very important responsibility of promoting the growth and retention of our Cub Run's PTA membership, keeping current membership informed and updated on PTA school activities, planning outreach initiatives to increase PTA members and highlighting and reporting out on the successes of our current membership to the PTA Board. Teacher & Staff Appreciation As Chair of Teacher & Staff Appreciation, you will help plan and hold appreciation events throughout the school year for staff and teachers. These events can include appreciation ideas like giving out donated treats or planning a school-day event (hot cocoa bar). You will also organize the annual Teacher and Staff Appreciation Week typically held in April, where each day teachers and staff are celebrated with a special activity, treat, lunch, or student contributions (bringing in cards or flowers). Spelling Bee As the Chair of the Spelling Bee, you will be responsible for organizing and promoting the annual Cub Run Elementary Spelling Bee and rehearsal event for grades 3-6 typically held in February during the school day. The winner of the spelling bee will represent Cub Run Elementary in the Fairfax County Spelling Bee. Cub Run “a-Thon” As the Cub Run “a-Thon” Chair, you will help organize and promote the annual Cub Run Elementary “a-Thon” fundraiser event where cubbies participate in a fun school-day activity typically held in October that helps the PTA fund school grants, student events, and other large-scale improvement projects. For the past 10 years, we have organized a run-a-thon involving a fun but challenging obstacle course; however, as Chair, you can make the decision to continue with the run-a-thon or try something new! From dance-a-thons to read-a-thons to sing-a-thons, the possibilities are endless! Military Families Liaison This liaison position supports our military-connected students and their families by creating a supportive and welcoming community and bringing these families together through different types of meetings or activities. These may include meet-up activities like pizza night or promoting a recognition day. You also serve as a primary point of contact between military families and our Cub Run PTA ensuring they are updated on PTA activities and school events. Special Education Liaison This liaison position serves as a link to resources on special education and related services. In this role, you will help support our Cub Run PTA by offering ideas for accommodations to PTA programs in order to facilitate the inclusion of all our Cubbies and families. |
