Volunteers
Part of our success at ICS is all of the help from friends and family that volunteer their time and efforts. Below is a list of events that our school will be offering. To be able to offer many of these activities, we need the ongoing help of our friends and family. Please review the possibilities and see if there is a time that you might be able to help. You can contact the school at any time: Email:principal@icsmaconk8.org or Call: (660)385-2711. Thanks for your help.

Find a truck and trailer, plan the decorations, and get helpers to walk/ride with students on the float. | Planning needs to start now. The Parade will be the afternoon of Friday -- September 30th. |
| Living Rosary | The month of October each year is dedicated to the Most Holy Rosary. This is primarily due to the fact that the liturgical feast of Our Lady of the Rosary is celebrated annually on October 7.

HELP NEEDED: to setup the materials, help the little kids through the process | Friday--October 7 |

| Speech Meets | Students have the opportunity to compete in several speech meets throughout the year. This helps them with their public speaking and with their confidence when speaking in front of groups. We need individuals to practice with the kids maybe once or twice before the meet.

Listen to the students give the speech and provide feedback. | Saturday, November 12 in Monroe City at 9 am Friday, January 13 in Salisbury at 1:30 pm Saturday, February 25 in Mexico at 9 am Saturday, March 25 in Jefferson City at 12 pm |
