Together we achieve MORE!

-Mr. Bloomfield

Many hands make light work and we need your help!   Our hope is that EVERY JBE FAMILY will find low-stress, fun ways to pitch in and help make sure the Best Little School in the Lowcountry continues to be the best.   We have changed the way that volunteering is going to work this year, allowing for a variety of commitment levels. In my head, this looks like a funnel, with a lot of causal volunteers at the top (low commitment) and cascading to the Executive Board at the bottom, who (obviously) carry the heavier loads.    Squads are our answer to volunteers being afraid to pitch in. Want to help, but don't want a big commitment or heavy responsibility? Check out our SQUADS!    We still need volunteers for our Committees, too. Learn more about them HERE

One thing is certain: We cannot do it without YOU!

Check out the Squads below and figure out how you and your family can pitch in this year.
