Parent Volunteer Opportunities

ROOM PARENTS

Chair: Amy Chastain, 404-370-1595. cribbw@bellsouth.net
Room parents are an important link between parents, teachers, and the Council. They help solicit volunteers for classroom and school functions; aid teacher(s) with party or special activity preparation; and organize classroom teacher gifts. We'd like two room parents per class and two for each day of PMO. A room parents meeting will be held soon to share enthusiasm, creativity and ideas.
