L.A.
I was PTA president at 2 different schools. I learned that parents like to be called and specificly asked. Ask the teacher who do they suggest? They many times know the parents that have shown interest in being in the classroom.
So go back and look at the sign up,sheets parents filled out at back to school night.nstart from the beginning or the end of the list and be excited about how fun this will be.. FYI, children LOVE seeing their parents help at school. Remind the parents about this fact.
Call dads too. They are awesome about helping.
Try to ask as soon as you know an event is going to happen, parents that work may need to schedule it a week or 2 ahead of time. Parents with younger children ,sy need to find child care.
Be Specific that the teacher requested the help. Exactly what they will be doing and how long they should expect to volunteer.
You can do this!
