Classroom Parents Still Needed

Thanks to everyone who volunteered to serve as a Classroom Parent! We need many more volunteers - click here to see if more volunteers are needed in your child's room: https://ftriver.blogspot.com/p/room-parents.html. We are also in need of a PGO Volunteer Coordinator to lead the Class Parent group. This can largely be done from home. 

Thank you for considering these fun opportunities! Please complete the attached form to volunteer or email ftriver@gmail.com.


Classroom Parent Volunteer Sign-Up

to recap:
Each classroom teacher has one to several room parents. Individual teachers utilize classroom parents in a manner that is comfortable for them and their classroom. These volunteers support classrooms in a variety of ways, depending upon the teachers’ preferences. Examples include:

• Communicating with the teacher regularly to determine classroom needs
• Keeping families informed of classroom events via email (or occasionally printed flyers)
• Creating and updating online “Wish Lists” for the teacher and classroom (if desired)
• Helping to plan classroom events and parties
• Recruiting field trip volunteers 

Additionally, the school administration and the PGO both utilize classroom parents as an important added means of communication with families. Room parents will be periodically asked to send email reminders to families about upcoming school-wide events and opportunities. Finally, classroom parents may organize a group class gift for the teacher at the end of the school year.

Volunteers are needed to serve as Classroom Parent for every classroom! Grab a friend and share the fun! If you can't personally volunteer please help us find someone for your child's class. Ask your friends and neighbors if they'd be willing to help. Choosing to become a class parent ensures that you will get to know your school community and most of the tasks can be done from home in your PJs!
