Each month, our Senior Class parents do something special for the Seniors. We picked October – Just because I thought of candied apples, mini pumpkins, pumpkin muffins, candy bags, etc. OK – I don’t want to make our month all about food! So, I need ideas!!! There are only 10 of them – so this can be really fun and inexpensive. We can do ONE thing for the month or something every day. It’s up to the parents to decide what they want to do. Any thoughts on fun stuff? All the parents decided to have locker decorations done, probably by Labor Day weekend. I will bring in breakfast one day and lunch on another. We are getting their "Fav" sheets this week (colors, movies, songs, etc.). But other than food – I have no idea what to do?! Thanks mamas – You all are always so creative!!!
A little more info: There are 10 students, time isn’t really a factor as we can do it whenever (element of surprise). I was planning to do my things during homeroom (20 minutes) or during Gov’t /Econ (1.5 hours). We’ve spoken with their teachers and they are totally fine with the parents planning things sporadically. Like I said, I don’t want mine to be all about food! Maybe some gift ideas we can leave in their lockers, hand to them at lunchtime or have waiting for them before they go to Homeroom. So glad for all the mamas – It really didn’t dawn on me how much TIME would be involved in doing this during the day.
Is there a room that the parents can use to make a mini "haunted house" where parents could dress up - maybe even put a campy twist on the haunted theme by having it be standard teen-embarrassment phobias - e.g., the parent who brings your lunch to school or makes you use a rolling backpack :-D
I need a bit more information in order to answer correctly...
How much time is set aside for these monthly celebrations? Or is this something set up in the cafeteria and the kids just wander through?
Are you looking for activities, like physical games? Or just favors? Or entertainment? Music?
It depends upon how much time is allowed? Before school? After school? During?
Thx
I would keep it simple. I would do something weekly, like one day during week one bring breakfast, one day during week two bring lunch, one day during week three bring an afternoon snack then wrap up the month a with party.
I need more info.. Number of kids.. Is this something you do for every senior at one time or just your own senior? How many are there?
Are there any rules..
They can create a donation to needy children: prom dresses and tuxes, cab fare and chaperones. This is how they give and learn.
