Do you want to become the room parent for your child's classroom? Sounds great! By becoming one, you'll serve as a liaison(联络) between the teacher and the students' parents. Moreover, you may also enjoy contributing to the learning sessions of your child as well as the entire class.
In most schools, the job description of a room parent will be ready and written. However, the teacher may decide what kind of help she requires from you. Therefore, one of the very first things you should do, before you start working as a room parent, is to meet the teacher and know the expectations she has from you. This will help you deliver in an organized and efficient way.
Some schools have two room parents. One handles the social aspect of the class—known as a social room parent, while the other handles everything related to studies—known as an academic room parent. Though the set of duties vary with every school and teacher, some responsibilities are common. For example, you'll have to provide support to the teacher in many areas. You'll have to assist in planning events, like field trips, classroom parties, etc. You'll have to ask some people to donate some money to the class to arrange for gifts needed for various occasions like Christmas, Teachers' Day, etc. You'll be expected to undertake various duties in the classroom, like office work, helping the teacher out with her tasks, etc.
To perform your duties well as a room parent, you're advised to check your voice mail and e-mail regularly. You can collect contact information forms from the parents and set up an e-mail group list for the class. Also you can communicate with the teacher about all activities regularly and seek her guidance when needed. More importantly, always keep interested in your role as a room parent!
