Parent Ambassador Committee

Become a Jarrow Ambassador and welcome new families into the Jarrow community by making introductions to existing families, helping new families become aware of events where in which they can meet other parents, and learn more about the school, and be a source of information when questions arise.

Gala Committee

The Gala is Jarrow’s largest fundraising event of the year. With so many opportunities to help and a great crew of volunteers, the Gala committee is a great way to give back to the school while having a great time party planning!  Contact shannon.marth@jarrow.org for more information about gala volunteer opportunities!

Community Parties

Not only are community parties fun and a great way to connect with other Jarrow families, all proceeds go directly to financial aid!  Have a great time while directly supporting your community! Interested in hosting a Community Party this year? Contact Shannon at shannon.marth@jarrow.org
