Parents on Campus

The goal of the Parents on Campus program is to promote a positive and safe environment for all members of the Van Meter community during the daily lunch period. As part of this program, parent volunteers assist students at lunchtime by opening containers, encouraging positive behavior and excusing students from the lunch area. In addition, Parents on Campus volunteers help the playground supervisors by solving minor problems and monitoring the play areas until the final lunch recess bell. Staff personnel will always be available to provide guidance and to handle a difficult situation should it arise.
