ABC's for Room Moms

The following article - thanks to: Everything Elementary

WHAT IS A ROOM MOM?

  • A room mom is someone who volunteers to assist the teacher. The extent of parental involvement varies from teacher to teacher, so one year you may be very involved, and the next you may find yourself with very little work to do.
  • The primary purpose of a room mom is to host the classroom parties.
  • Most teachers also rely on parent helpers to cut, make copies, organize work folders, help with centers, assist with field trips, help on cooking days, and organize book orders.

WHAT IS A "HEAD" ROOM MOM?

  • She generally works directly with the teacher to organize parent volunteers and relay information to the other room mothers. (See our Room Mom's Questions for a Teacher.)
  • On occasion, two head room moms will be selected. One will organize the parties, and the other will organize all the other tasks.
  • She typically collects and disburses the money.
  • She recruits volunteers for specific events, and assigns the commitments for the coming school year.
  • She sends out two letters to parents during the first month or two of school after conferring with the teacher. The first letter should be a "Recruiting" tool, and the second letter should be a " Thanks for Committing To…" tool. This is quite possibly the most time consuming task for a head room mother, but well worth the effort.
