Class Coordinator (CC): There are two to three CCs assigned to each grade level. Responsibilities of the position include, but are not limited to, the following: 1. CCs, along with CPs, may plan and organize class parties as well as take an active part in any grade level functions. The CC should notify the CPs and the teacher of his/her desired level of participation. 2. Throughout the year, you will be informed of any changes, additions, and deletions to the class lists. You must inform all the CPs in the affected class of any of these changes. 3. CCs are the first substitutes for any field trip when a class parent cannot attend. 4. CCs must attend at least the September, January, and May PTA meetings. 5. CCs must collect from each of their CPs e-mail addresses of all their assigned families. CCs may be called upon to send class specific or grade level communications via e-mail. In the event a family has not given their e-mail address, please contact the assigned CP, so they may phone the family and verbally give the communication.

Class Parent (CP): There are three CPs assigned to each class. The responsibilities of each CP include, but are not limited to, the following: 1. CPs must use the enclosed class list that has been divided, in alphabetical order, equally between all 3 CPs. 2. CPs are responsible for sending a Welcome Letter to each family assigned to them. The Welcome Letter can also be downloaded from the PTA website. 3. Throughout the year, CPs are responsible for contacting each family assigned to them with any classroom activity information that needs to be communicated. 4. On the welcome letter, we ask for each families e-mail address. It is the CPs responsibility to collect e-mail addresses for their assigned families. E-mail addresses can be used by both CPs and CCs for class or grade level communications. Once collected, CPs must transcribe e-mail addresses onto the provided table and send them to their assigned CC. If a family does not have or want to give out their e-mail address, please indicate that on the table. In the event a communication needs to be sent, for those families who did not provide an e-mail address, your CC will contact you with the verbal message to be communicated to the family via phone. 5. CPs are called upon to plan and organize class parties, collect class party money at the beginning of the year, attend field trips and field day. CPs should include CCs who wish to be included in planning classroom parties. 6. Throughout the year, your CC will inform you of any changes, additions, and deletions to your class list. For additions, the corresponding grade level coordinator will determine which CP will be responsible for contacting the new family regarding classroom activities and for sending a Welcome Letter. 7. If a CP is unable to attend a field trip, the first substitute asked should be your CC assigned to that class. 8. CPs for each class must work together. 9. Some grades have annual events that you will be called upon to help organize. 10. CPs must attend at least the September, January, and May PTA meetings.
