Volunteers are the backbone of a strong and successful school. Brennen is fortunate to have many dedicated parent volunteers, but there are numerous opportunities and we can always use more help. The best way for you to get to know the school, other families and the teachers is through volunteering. Our goal is for every parent to sign up to help with at least one activity, fundraiser, event or position. You choose what fits your schedule and your interest.
