Every Teacher has unique views on what they need from a room parent. Some teachers would like room parents to just organize parties and field trips others want them to help organize volunteers for centers or special events in the classroom. You will need to speak very frankly with your teacher early in the year to determine what their needs are. The PTA has specific needs from the room parents as well. We often try and reach all parents electronically but they have not signed up for our yahoo! group so we email our room parent coordinators to email the room parents who in turn email their classroom parents. You are also more aware of the students whose parents do not have internet access or speak English as a second language. There are also times we need volunteers from a specific grade or track to assist with a PTA project and we will ask you to email your parent list.
