Parent Jobs

Parental Involvement: Parent Jobs

To help the school run smoothly, each family is required to choose a Parent Job. (This is not a Toddler requirement.) Each parent will receive a thorough job description, outlining the responsibilities of their job and expectations for the entire school year. Some jobs may be combined to make the workload equal for all parents. The Director is in charge of assigning jobs to parents and will try to accommodate individual needs. For a list of Parent Jobs and brief descriptions see Appendix B in the Handbook.

All Parent Jobs are two hours per month. There is a buyout option if requested at the cost of $50 a month ($25 an hour). This request can be made to the director in September. The fee will be added to your monthly tuition.
