​​Classroom Coordinators

​

Formerly known as "room parents," this vital role, Classroom Coordinators are needed for each classroom to build community and act as a communications bridge between the PTA and the parents/ caregivers in each class cohort. We have found that two classroom coordinators per class is best for effective collaboration and balancing responsibilities.

​​

Classroom coordinators are key to increasing enthusiasm in Oxford events and fundraisers. A full list of responsibilities are on the the next page as well

as on our website.

​

During the regular school year the Calendar of responsibilities are roughly as follows:
