Summer Hill Elementary School Makeover
Richmond Public Schools (RPS) is hosting a series of facilities improvement projects and would like your help! We are working with groups such as Building a Better RPS, corporate partners, civic groups, and individual volunteers. LANDSCAPING: • Landscaping projects near the front entrances and walkways areas need to be maintained with mulch and flowers for curb appearance. • All debris and weeds should be removed from common outdoor areas. OTHER VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITIES MAY INCLUDE: • Assist Teachers with Setting-up Classrooms • Assemble Welcome Back Teacher Supply Kits Supplies will be provided for all tasks. Volunteers are welcome to bring gardening gloves and basic gardening tools. Feel free to also bring electrical trimmers and other gardening tools that may be useful for landscaping. Please dress appropriately for the weather and working conditions around the school. Closed-toe shoes are required. Expect clothes to become dirty. Volunteers should bring their own water bottles and snacks. Please park on the sides of the school, as there is not a "true" parking lot. All volunteers should meet at the front entrance of the school.
