Team Responsibilities
In the spirit of cooperation, one parent for each child must actively work on a team or serve in a board position. Teams can be changed or rearranged from year to year based on the needs of the classroom and as approved by the board. The teams for the 2007-2008 school years are:
Classroom Coordination
Special Events
Finance/Fundraising
Membership
Teacher Helper
Communications
Portfolio Team
Team members will receive training from their Team Leader about the position they hold on the team. Families are placed on teams by the Board of Directors during the summer by using the Parent Team Questionnaire completed by each family.
Team Descriptions
The Teacher Helper Team is responsible for helping the teacher with lesson material preparation, organizing classroom parties, planning and preparing for field trips, organizing Scholastic books orders and organizing Campbell’s Soup Labels.
The Special Events Team is responsible for planning and carrying out all special events during the course of the school year. Each member will co-lead one or two events, then assist in any way needed during the other events. Responsibilities include setting up for an event or cleaning up after an event and may involve preparation of other materials needed. This team will also handle all donations to be used in the classroom or at special events.
