Annual Parent Responsibilities
- Duty Parent
One duty parent attends each session. As
a duty parent, you rotate within the families
registered in each session your child attends.
You will be assigned a duty day at least a
month in advance, leaving you plenty of time to
plan for that day. It is each parent’s
responsibility to arrange for a replacement on
their given duty day if they are unable to
attend. You can only be a duty parent on the days
your child is registered on. You are
required to attend duty days in each of your child’s separate
sessions. A parent phone
list will be provided so that you may switch days
with other parents in the same session.
If a switch is made, please indicate it on the
Master Duty Roster on the bulletin board
inside the classroom so that a proper contact is
available for the teachers. If there are
prior commitments preventing you from being able
to participate as a duty parent on
specific days, please do not register your child
in that session. The class depends on the
volunteer parent and cannot proceed without their
involvement therefore a class may be
cancelled in its entirety if you do not attend
at your scheduled time. A duty parent can
be a parent, family member, or friend.
- Board of
Directors/ Committee Members
The Nursery School operates by a series of committees,
details of which may be found
on the Registration forms. Every family is required
to volunteer to serve on a committee
or take a position on the Board under which committees
serve.
- Fundraising and Marketing
Annual fundraising and marketing campaigns occur
throughout the year to ensure the
financial success of our playschool. Full participation
in all fundraising is mandatory. Every
second year the playschool has the opportunity
to run a Casino; this is the backbone of
our fundraising campaign. The revenue we receive
from the Casino allows us the benefit
of a full time teacher’s aide, as well as heavily contributing
to the financial health of the
school. Each family must commit to one shift
at the Casino. Various jobs and times are
available. During off casino years the Nursery
School does smaller scale fundraising, in
the form of raffles, selling chocolates, etc.
We are always looking for new and creative
fundraising ideas from the parent body. Your
input is invaluable.
- Cleaning Bee
One member from each family is expected to attend
one of four annual cleaning bees,
where a thorough cleaning is given to everything
from the toys to the rugs. This ensures
the health and safety of our children and if
you do not participate, a monetary fine will
be issued. It is each parent’s responsibility to arrange for
a replacement on their given
cleaning bee day if they are unable to attend.
