Each year, the Westerly Parent Association (WPA) names specific Room Parents for each grade and co-curricular programs (music, athletics, arts, etc.) to help keep the greater parent body involved and connected to school activities. Being a Room Parent is a great way to get to know other parents and be involved in all aspects of the school! Throughout the year, Room Parents will:
- Serve as a liaison for the teacher, the WPA and the parents in their grade level
- Assist and support the teacher with classroom activities as needed.
- Attend monthly WPA meeting and relay important information to the rest of the parents in their class
- Promote and support school events
- Coordinate Auction picture and Auction class donation
