IV.                 PARENT-TEACHER GROUP INVOLVEMENT

Active involvement in the life of the school is expected of all parents.  Parent-Teacher meetings are an essential part of this involvement.  Time will be logged and recorded.  Each family is asked to donate a minimum of 20 hours to the school.  Attendance at each of the P.T.G. General Meetings is recorded as 1 hour of service (3 hours per school year).

 

Parents may choose from one of the activities listed below, or help in other school events.

 

  

1. _____CARPOOLS:  Helping to transport students during a school activity.

2. _____LIBRARY:  The simple process of checking books in and out, shelving, and overseeing small groups of children.  Hours and days are flexible.

3. _____ROOM MOTHER:  Room mothers form a necessary network in assisting the classroom by preparing and coordinating various classroom and school activities.  The concept of a room mother is not that she does all the work but rather that she acts as liaison between teacher and the parents in the classroom.  There are generally three to four room mothers per grade.  Room mothers will be credited for actual hours worked.

4. _____PTG OFFICER:  Service as a PTG officer requires dedication and a willingness to serve without remuneration accepting only the appreciation of your peers from time to time.

5. _____SPORTS ACTIVITIES:  Help as coach with different sports teams such as football, volleyball, basketball, etc.

 

Parents are expected to hand in completed Hours of Service to the volunteer coordinator each time service is done.  These sheets need to be signed by the chairperson of the activity.  The school cannot recognize contributed hours unless these slips have been received.
