Room Parent(s)


I just received this flyer from TLCS and thought I would share it with all of you :)

WANTED ROOM PARENTS
What is a Room Parent?
A room parent is the critical link between the teacher and the classroom parents. A room parent assists the teacher with special events, communication and parent support.
What is involved in being a Room parent?
The specific duties include:
  • Working with the teacher to plan classroom parties and special events
  • Coordinating classroom volunteer schedules
  • Attending the monthly Home & School Club meetings and
    communicating information covered to classroom parents
  • Coordinating classroom auction project
  • Organizing teacher gifts throughout the year (optional)
    Do I have to do it alone?
    No! You can choose to share the responsibilities with another parent (split up duties and Home & School Club meetings, etc.). Either way, the trick is to DELEGATE and get lots of help! Most parents want to help- just ask! You can break up big jobs into small tasks and use online sign-up sheets so parents can choose when and how they can help – on the go!
    How do I sign up?
    Talk to your child’s teacher and let them know you would like to be their Room Parent.  Please sign up at Back-to-School Night.  
    Thank you for considering this very important job!! It is going to be a great year!
