Room parents are an essential part of the St. Patrick's community. They are ambassadors, helping to nurture connections among all parents in the class and fostering participation in a range of activities. They also are an invaluable support system for the teachers. Two Room Parent volunteers are assigned to each classroom.
This volunteer opportunity can be handled by parents - either moms or dads - who are full-time in the home or employed full-time outside the home. Co-Room Parents share the classroom activity coordination and communication responsibilities, dividing the tasks equally. The Room Parent Handbook, outlining Room Parent responsibilities, is here for your reference.
