To volunteer: We need parents to fill the following roles. For the in-person roles, the goal is to reduce the burden on parents to about 1x/ month.

Administrator Assist with notifications, scheduling, websites, etc. This can be done on your own time, and the work could be distributed among multiple parents.
Grader Record scores for the monthly MOEMS exams. Could help tabulate attendance also. This can also be done on your own time.
Classroom assistant provide guidance to students in the classroom. Ideally about 4 parents per class session (2 for each classroom).
Instructor lead the classroom sessions. Not as scary as it sounds! You only need a basic math background. We will work out curriculum in advance.
