Garfield PTA loves, loves, loves volunteers.

Looking to get more involved?  please fill out the volunteer form below! 

Volunteer Opportunities: We have many ways you can help support the school. All volunteers must complete the district's background check prior to volunteering:  OSD Online Volunteer Application for 2024-25. ​
  • Popcorn Fridays - We’re excited to bring back this much loved Garfield tradition of giving everyone a bag of popcorn on Friday. We will need volunteers to make it happen - each Friday morning from approximately 8:30 - 11:00 AM.  Volunteer once a month or once a quarter, whatever works for you.  TO VOLUNTEER please sign up here. 
  • Track Stars - Track Stars is a great opportunity to get involved during the day.  Track Stars volunteers help keep track of the students laps, hand out charms when students earn them and help keep kids safe around the field. TO VOLUNTEER please email [email protected].

Coming later this year
  • Movie Nights. Help pop popcorn, sell candy, and supervise for a Garfield move night.
  • Winter Giving Garfield PTA supports students and families with holiday gifts each December. Help is needed to fundraise, organize, and distribute gifts.
  • ​​Staff Appreciation. During conference weeks we put out a spread of snacks for the teachers and staff at Garfield to say "Thank You".  Bring in a home-made treat, or volunteer to pick up food locally and drop off at Garfield.
  • Field Day This is a fun one!  The afternoon of one of the last days of school we put on a variety of fun and active events for students.   
  • Fundraisers - Work from home helping us to promote our various passive fundraisers: eScript (Safeway), Fred Meyer, Thriftway, etc.  ​
  • Spring Fundraiser - We hold a fundraiser each spring to raise money for PTA activities. Volunteers are needed for event planning and coordination.
