It is our vision to have the same teachers in each of our preschool classes from week to week during the school year (with breaks and holidays of course). We really believe this will positively impact the experience for the preschoolers. This is not a problem in our elementary area but for some reason we just can't seem to push through in prek. When I became director 2 years ago we had this crazy schedule with people serving once/month or twice a month on the 2nd and 3rd sunday at the first service only - I get a headache just thinking about that schedule. We now have 3 teams of 2 that do serve consistently each week but need 3 more teams.
I've just recently begun tracking attendance and discovered to my total surprise that 2/3 of our families attend just one or two times a month. How can I get consistent volunteers when we don't have consistent attenders? Any ideas out there?
