Room Parents!
Room Parents
Each Seward classroom has one or more parent who have volunteered to be a Room Parent. A Room Parent helps build community by communicating school and classroom events to Seward families.
What exactly does a room parent do?
At the beginning of the year,
create a class contact list
to use as a guide for communications. Parents should expect to receive frequent email/phone calls (less likely)/newsletter communications from the Room Parent.
Act as a communications liaison between the PTA
and classroom parents. This would include forwarding on PTA notes and communications via email or newsletter.
Plan or delegate planning of at least 1 classroom gathering
outside of the school day.
Welcome new families
into the classroom that may come in throughout the year.
Communicate with the teacher
to assist finding volunteesr (as requested by the teacher) and possibly solicit donations for classroom supplies as needed.
Coordinate teacher gifts
as needed throughout the year.
We are still looking for Room Parents.
If you are interested in becoming a Room Parent or joining a Room Parent team, please contact Aliina Adelman, Seward Room Parent Coordinator,
