Join the online directory
Join and update your contact information in the online school directory.
Fill out the Volunteer Interest Survey
When you log into the directory, take a moment to fill out the Volunteer Interest Survey. The Volunteer Coordinators will get in touch with you if there is an opportunity that matches your interests. *Note: There are events/positions listed that may not be available this year due to Covid restrictions.*
Join your class email group
This is the easiest way to receive up-to-date information about what is going on in your student’s class and to get class specific needs or notes from your teachers. To join the email group, see these instructions or email the Volunteer Coordinators at volunteer@topsk8.org with: your name, and your student’s name and grade.
Join TOPS Site Council
TOPS Site Council is similar to a PTA. It is made up of parent representatives, school staff, and an Eastlake community representative. Site Council meetings are open to all parents and caregivers of TOPS students. You can join meetings via Zoom, phone, or give feedback by emailing your Site Council representative. *Your Site Council representative will email the Zoom link. All meetings provide ASL interpreters. Other language interpreters are available on request.* If you have questions about Site Council or are interested in joining, please email sitecouncil@topsk8.org
Join the Building Leadership Team
Every school has a Building Leadership Team. The parent representatives on BLT include one person from grades K-4, one from grade 5-8, and one person who is a member of the TOPS Parents of Color Caucus. These parents work with the principal and four other staff members on goals and strategies to boost student achievement. If you are interested in joining the BLT this year, please email Yvonne Devineni (5th grade parent and outgoing BLT member): yvonne.devineni@gmail.com.
We hope you will find a way to get involved that feels valuable to you and your family.
