What's available for CheckOut?

The Resource Center is a membership organization.

Membership is granted to employees of member schools and to individuals paying the annual membership fee.  Persons serving as substitute teachers, interns, student teachers and parent volunteers are extended membership privileges while assigned to a school with the understanding that all materials created are property of the school.

Children are not permitted in the facility.

The Resource Center is a professional facility for educators to prepare their lessons. In addition there are numerous pieces of equipment that pose potential safety hazards. The Resource Center staff cannot accept liability for the safety of children in the building. Please make other arrangements for your children while visiting us.

GET THE MOST FROM YOUR VOLUNTEERS

  • We love to see your parent volunteers helping you out! Here are some tips to make the most of their visit:
  • Volunteers must submit a REGISTRATION FORM signed by the principal/vice principal or volunteer coordinator before they are eligible to work in The Resource Center.
  • Volunteers will be given a brief tour so they may assist you better.
  • Clearly define all tasks. You can use our DIE-CUT REQUEST/VOLUNTEER EASY FORM as a guide.
  • Our staff is always available to assist your volunteers. If you have a complicated task in mind, give us a call. We'll be happy to walk your volunteer through it.
