Frequently Asked Questions:
Q: How do I know who my assigned staff member is?
A: You will receive your assigned staff member and their “Favorites Form” by email during the first week of September.
Â
Q: Is there a specific amount of money I need to spend?
A: There really isn’t a specific dollar amount for each treat. Your goodies don’t have to be expensive or elaborate; the goal is to surprise them with something to let them know we appreciate what they do for our children, our families, and our community.
Â
Q: What should I give my assigned staff member?
A: If they provided one, you should have received a copy of their “Favorites Form” along with your Secret Owl assignment form. We also post links to all our staff favorites forms here. Some people like to do seasonal items based on the time of year or holidays. We also share a guide with a few suggestions for each month.
Â
Q: How often should I deliver a gift for my assigned staff member?
A: Our hope is that each staff member receives a surprise each month of the school year (October – May).
Â
Q: How do I get my goodies to my assigned staff member?
A:Â You can drop them in the front office, and they will make sure the staff member knows they have something to pick up. Plan to deliver your first gift during the month of October.
Â
Q: What happens if I signed up to be a Secret Owl, but I no longer want to or am no longer able to participate?
A: We completely understand that things change, and life can come at us fast. Please reach out to the current Secret Owl Committee Chair and let them know you will not be participating moving forward. That way we can find another family to take over your assigned faculty member and they will not miss out on this program.
Â
Q: What if I still have questions?
A: Please don't hesitate to contact this year’s Secret Owl Committee Chair ('25-' 26 Kim Riley kim.g.riley4@gmail.com)
