The goal of room parents is to help support the teachers and students in their respective classrooms by serving as liaisons between the teacher and parents. They help to facilitate communication with parent, help organize volunteers for classrooms social and educational events, field trips, and activities in the classroom where the teacher may need some additional help. As a result of their ongoing participation and communication, room parents help strengthen a sense of community in the class, which benefits the children and school as a whole. There are typically two room parents per class.
