Become a Room Parent

Harbordale Elementary Room Parent Volunteer Sign-Up Form

In order to be a Room Parent, you MUST be an approved volunteer AND a member of the Harbordale School Association (HSA).

Thank you so much for your interest in volunteering as a Room Parent! It is so exciting and is a great way to help in your child’s classroom and/or around the school.

Some of the great things a Room Parent does are:

  • Time Commitment – 1-2 hours per week, but can vary depending on the teacher’s needs.
  • Meet with the teacher to establish volunteer needs for the year.
  • Encourage other parents in the class to join the HSA.
  • If the teacher wants, help assign parent volunteers for parties, field trips and other events.
  • Assist in getting supplies and snacks for classroom parties.
  • Assist in getting donations for classroom supplies if needed.
  • Attend HSA meetings to keep informed of upcoming HSA events and activities.
  • Assist with informing other parents about events going on at the school
  • Assist with getting the word out to get your teacher’s class adopted for the school year.
  • Inform the other parents of the Teacher’s favorite things during birthday and holidays.
  • Make the teacher’s birthday a special day.
  • Assist with Teacher Appreciation Week.

If you have additional questions, please email – roomparents@harbordalehsa.com

The deadline to submit room parent applications is August 23rd.
