FLAME Parent Duties
FLAME is a Co-op (Co-operative). We require parental cooperation in the following ways when choosing to enroll your children in FLAME:
1. Serve: . In order for FLAME to run successfully, one or both parents of those enrolled in FLAME must contribute to the operations of FLAME on a regular basis. In order to facilitate parental involvement, we will be requesting one parent to remain on site for at least one class period at each week FLAME is in session, OR to serve on a combination of committees, which may include occasionally serving at FLAME. You may indicate your preference for a regular or variable weekly assignment, and rank your preference for the class periods to stay and help. We take your preferences, skill, family responsibilities, and ages of your children into consideration when making assignments, but please understand that we may not be able to meet all preferences. We expect parents to be flexible, supportive, servant-minded, and helpful in any capacity they are assigned to. Follow this link for detailed role descriptions: Volunteer Committee PDF
2. Fundraising: Engage in fundraising activities to help fund scholarships and keep costs affordable. Each year, FLAME families engage in a variety of fundraising activities to keep tuition costs low, cover administrative expenses, and provide scholarship opportunities. While participation is not mandatory, FLAME’s continued operation depends on the willingness of its families to help out with fundraising. Fundraising contributes approximately 10% of the budget for a given year. If a FLAME family chooses not to participate in fundraising, they may contribute a monetary donation to aid in FLAME expenses.
