The ability to work with your child’s teacher and have direct interaction in the classroom will be a very rewarding experience. Listed below are the responsibilities that each room mom may have for their particular class. It is imperative to have access to a computer. There will be additional communications from your room mom coordinator that will be done by e-mail in order to reach all room moms.

You will also be responsible for setting up a group list of each parent’s current e-mail from your particular class so that you will be able to communicate most effectively and timely with your individual class parents. The room moms will be asked to forward important school announcements to their class, effectively reaching all families of St. Thomas. Your St. Thomas room mom coordinator will be available to assist you in your efforts throughout the year.

Have a great year!
