Volunteer for the Cherokee APT
The Cherokee Association of Parents and Teachers (APT) encourages you to join in making our school and community a wonderful place for our children.  Attend an APT meeting to hear what is going on in our school/community and offer your feedback. Meetings are open to all parents of Cherokee School students. Call a Cherokee APT board or committee member to volunteer, communicate your ideas or have your questions answered.  Contact a Room Parent to assist with parties, field trips and other classroom activities.

For more information about the Cherokee APT contact Jeff Folker, APT Board President at jefffolker@aol.com.
