Please join the TJ PTSA Diversity Committee at our after-school Celebration of Black History Month on Friday, February 25th! We need your help to make this event a success! How can you help?

TJHSST – PTSA Diversity Committee: A Celebration of African American Cooking (signupgenius.com)

Prepare a Dish: “THE SUNDAY TABLE” – A Celebration of African American Cooking

We are looking for volunteers to prepare traditional African American dishes or dishes that represent the culinary journey from African to American for our TJPTSA Black History Month celebration. To keep it simple, we have put together a tasting menu of “typical” foods you would find at a traditional southern African American Sunday Table. New to southern cooking, but want to give it a try? Please don’t hesitate to volunteer. There are recipes attached for each dish needed, and parent volunteers to contact if you have any questions. Thank you! 

Help As an Event Volunteer 

We need parents and students to act as “Event Volunteers”. Responsibilities include, but are not limited to: serving food, supervising Art installations, helping with performances, etc. Some Event Volunteers will need to participate in a short pre-event rehearsal at the school on Thursday, 2/24 at 6:30pm. (Details to be provided) 

Help Setting Up

We need adults to help receive donated food, and help set up tables the day of the event.

Help Cleaning Up

Just like it sounds…. We need help putting every back the way we found it.
