          Be a Class Parent Rep. or Class Helper!

At La Citadelle, we pride ourselves on being a community and a family and wish to continue to be an exemplary holistic educational environment for our children by being proactive in our participation in school life.  The PSC(Parent Support Committee) sets the tone for the support of the school in its endeavours and is continually seeking the voluntary participation of all parents in this noble undertaking. 

Being a class parent representative or a class helper volunteer is a great opportunity for parents to be involved in the school life, to meet other parents, and to provide much valued support to our classroom teachers.

Children learn some of the most important life attributes and contributions, simply through example and who can best shine in helping to demonstrate this: YOU!

In this volunteer role, parents have the opportunity to participate in the educational experience of their children and their class and take an active interest in the development of the school.

If you are interested in volunteering for these exciting roles, please send us an email by Friday, October 30^th, 2014 at:

psc@lacitadelleacademy.com

stating your name, your child’s grade level and your telephone number.  We will have a meeting of all Class Parents and Class Helpers in the Science Laboratory at 4:30 p.m. on Thursday, November 14, 2014.

We are currently looking for:

Class Representatives for Grades 3 to 12 and

Class Helpers for Junior Kindergarten and Senior Kindergarten

For Further description of what these roles entail, please refer to the Role Description Attached.

Classroom Helpers and Representatives will be contacted by the end of the month to attend a Class Parent Representatives meeting.

We look forward to your support in making this another great year at La Citadelle!

Class Room Representatives:

Class Reps facilitate communication between teachers and parents and among parents in the class. They also send teachers requests, reminders, and/or other class/school related announcements to the parents.  Class Reps engage and listen to parents and direct parents to appropriate resources, such as a teacher or administrator for any issues and concerns. Class Reps support new families, prepare parent contact lists, organize teacher appreciation, and build community by organizing parent events with our teachers and classes.

Classroom Helpers:

 Classroom Helpers support teachers, including helping with class events, special errands, organizing classroom supplies, helping with events like the Gala (and in some cases preparing the Gala Costumes where needed), fieldtrip set-up, and finding extra volunteers if needed for fieldtrips, Class Helpers also support Class Reps with teacher appreciation and as backup where needed in case of short term absence, e.g. vacation, etc.
