Room Parent Team Role

Work closely with (second room parent and) classroom teacher. Communication: Responsible for phone and e-mail contact lists, news updates and passing on any information for teacher or staff pertaining to your particular class to other classroom parents (via emails, flyers, phone calls). Logistics: Gather needed supplies, volunteers, help set up field trips, etc. One team member per classroom should participate in monthly Family Association Meetings (the last Thursday of the month from 6:30 to 8:00pm) and report back to class of upcoming events. Requires frequent use of email for communication from/to Room Parent Coordinator.

Starter Kit The “Start-up Kit” packet is a first attempt to guide you by providing useful information for you to pass onto to other parents.
Please post these memos as appropriate for your classroom. Dedicated wall space or a bulletin board is recommended for posting ongoing and new classroom or campus-wide information. Templates are provided to help with organization. These are suggested forms only, please feel free to be creative and expand on what we have provided here. We are also eager for feedback, so please remind us if we have overlooked important information. More information to come!
