Each school year Room Reps are needed to help out with classroom parties and coordinate dessert Tuesday’s and help out with PTO events.  Sign ups are done at the begining of  the school year. Below is a list of responsibilities for Room Reps:

• Attend monthly PTO meetings.  If there is more than one room rep, then each room rep can take a turn attending meetings.  The goal is to try and have each grade represented at each of the meetings. This will allow for proper communication between all parents/grades. IT is MANDATORY that all Room Rep Coordinators attend at least 3/4 of the PTO meetings.
• Be an ambassdor to all new families entering into grade/class during the year .
• Coordinate classroom parties for the teachers. (See individual teacher for info.)
•  Organize auction or Christmas Carnival basket for classroom.
• Coordinate “Dessert Wednesdays” when grade is responsible (9:00-11:00) grade K – 8 only
• Chair, Co-Chair or volunteer at least one PTO school event.
• Grade 1 is responsible for K Graduation (mandatory event)
• Grade 7 is responsible for Grade 8 dinner (mandatory event)

As a Room Rep our responsibility is to act as a liaison between you and the classroom Teacher  for events that happen in the class, i.e. holiday parties, classroom projects (Auction/Christmas Carnival baskets), dessert Wednesdays and field trips.  The room rep will be in touch with the class room parent to  let you know what is needed and how you can contribute to make PTO events a success.  Also new this year we are starting our Room Rep Ambasador program where all Room Reps will contact any new families in the class and offer support and guidance during the year to get that family acustomed to the SJS familiy.
