Seeking: Classroom Parent Leads

Classroom parent leads are a vital connection between each class and the PTA and with the school front office. Leads share updates, elevate concerns, and foster a sense of community within each individual class. Please consider signing up and better with a buddy:

Each classroom should have at least (2) class parent leads and having multiple leads means responsibilities can be shared more easily.

Class Parent Tasks:

  • Act as an ambassador for your class, such as representing at meetings & functions.

  • Support the teachers

    • Check if extra class supplies are needed & help organize materials

    • Spearhead & collect teacher appreciation 

  • Head up communications for your class on Konstella, such as:

    • Calendar reminders

    • PTA events & activities  

    • Field questions or concerns

    • Sign-up sheets

  • Help connect families who might need help with various matters such as technology, homework and habits.

  • Help coordinate volunteers for field trips and other parent-led activities, such as PTA events.

Leads will be added to a group email list + given additional editing features on Konstella.

UPDATE: School Supplies + Bright School Kits

The Bright School Kits that were scheduled to ship directly to the school have arrived! We ask for some assistance on Friday, September 6 to to help sort the bundled kits by grade so they can be distributed to the correct classroom. Sign up on Konstella to volunteer.

For those who purchased kits to ship to your homes, please sit tight. The BSK warehouse staggers deliveries by school start date, not by purchase date. If you have any questions, please reach out to the BSK customer support directly with your order #:  

Our team is working around the clock to make sure you receive your order. We have team members onsite at our warehouse and others responding to emails & message requests. The BEST way to reach us is by sending us a Facebook DM or with an email to support@brightschoolkits.com  To expedite the process, please provide us with your order number. You are also welcome to include the name of the school for which the order was placed. We understand that this is extremely frustrating and we deeply apologize. 

For those who missed ordering through Bright School Kits, feel free to purchase supplies on your own. Lists are available here: ps20.org/supplies
