We also have a small school and what I did this year was to revamp one of the board positions. The Special Projects Coordinator handles 4 smaller projects (returnables, boxtops, school clothes and juice machine). At such time that one becomes large enough we will spin it off and look for an event coordinator to take it over.
How many commitees is too many? Our school is small 350 students so its hard to get volunteers. We are constantly adding commitees to cover things we want to get done. Examples We now need to add a Family Activities person to coordinate these actvities. We also have the Hospitality, Holiday, Campbells Labels, Box Tops, In School Programs just to name a few. Do you feel this is a good idea to divide these into to seperate commitees or is there an easier way?
