Ever wonder what’s involved in helping out at school? Whether you’re curious about what those folks on the PTA Board actually do behind the scenes, or you’re interested in joining a committee or helping out in the classroom, this guide will — when it’s fully fleshed out — help you to understand what the responsibilities of a particular role entail.

Select the Category of volunteering you are interested in learning more about in the sidebar. You will see numerous PTA jobs and their descriptions listed. To learn more, click on a job and read through the comments of previous and/or current volunteers describing in more depth the ins and outs of that role.

Active at school? We need your help!

Help to make this directory as useful a tool as the Fall Feast Pages are to second-grade parents each year. If you were volunteering last school year or are active this year, please take some time to add your thoughts, additions and corrections to the comments for your role. You can go into as much detail as you like to provide future volunteers with a good sense of what the job entails.

While this directory isn’t being indexed by search engines, please don’t share sensitive information such as passwords or account numbers in this location.

If you don’t see your role listed and think it should be included here, let the webmaster (Deirdre Spencer) know.
