Den Reps
Building classroom communities
Building classroom communities
What is a Den Rep? A parent or caregiver volunteer who helps keep everyone in their child’s class in the loop throughout the school year.
What will I do as a Den Rep? Share updates from the PTA (PTA meeting attendance is not required), pass along important info, and help coordinate things like class events, playground meet ups if desired, group messaging, sign-ups, and volunteer needs.
Why should I be a Den Rep? It’s a great way to stay connected, support the class, and build a sense of community with other families!
If you're interested in this opportunity, send an email to vicepresident@lysethpta.org. We’re happy to answer any questions you have and get you started!
