Are you interested in becoming a Room Parent this year?

(Remember, you do not need to be a Room Parent to volunteer in the classroom 😊)

Some of the duties of Room Parents include (but are not limited to):

· Partnering with your Co-Room Parents to serve as the liaison between your classroom teacher, classroom families, and occasionally the PTO for communicating important school information

· Attending a beginning of the year planning meeting (and others as required) with grade-level Room Parents and teachers

· Collecting and managing class funds to be used on celebrations throughout the year

· Coordinating volunteers for classroom celebrations (e.g. Halloween, Valentine’s Day, etc.)

· Organizing gift giving and/or other recognition occasions for the classroom teacher (e.g. Teacher Appreciation Week, teacher birthday celebration, end of the year class gift, etc.)


Please keep in mind that each classroom needs 2 – 3 Room Parents. This form is to indicate your interest ONLY.  It does not mean you will be the Room Parent for the room you indicate.  We often have more volunteers than space allows, and in that case, we may need to institute a lottery or similar for Room Parent spots.  If there are more volunteers than space allows, we will work with you to find other volunteer opportunities in your classroom or through the PTO.

If interested, please complete this form by this Friday, 8/29.  We will be in touch after that time to confirm Room Parent spots or offer other volunteer roles that may interest you.  If you have any questions, please contact Katie Carges at katie.carges@gmail.com

Thank you!
