We are seeking volunteers to be the classroom coordinator for their child’s class. The classroom coordinator helps to communicate the wants/needs of the classroom teacher to all of the families. They may also choose to collect contributions for a classroom gift at the holidays, teacher appreciation, and/or at the end of the school year or any time in between. 

Occasionally the PTO might ask for your help sharing information with classes about the Readathon or collecting t-shirt sizes for Field Day, etc. 

If you are interested in taking on this task, please sign up via the sign-up genius link below. Feel free to email volunteer@brooksptomedford.org with any questions.

At least one coordinator is needed per classroom, however there are 2 slots available if more than one parent is interested.

Our beloved Fall Fest 2024 is on October 6th and it takes an army of volunteers to ensure everything runs smoothly. Please consider signing up for more than one shift using the link below. Please remember that you have to be signed in to Membership Toolkit in order to sign up. https://brooksptomedford.membershiptoolkit.com/volunteer/136135

We also welcome alumni volunteers who are in middle school, or high school.  If you know of a student interested in volunteering, please send this form to their parent or guardian: https://forms.gle/BotKrGFMop5k7cDB9

Volunteering is more fun with friends - encourage a friend to join you! All adult volunteers get tickets (4 for 2-hr slots and 10 for 4-hrs) and student volunteers get 2 slices of pizza and a bottle of water. If you have any questions, please contact the Fall Fest Volunteer Coordinator: Shreya Bhattacharyya at shreya.bhattacharyya@gmail.com or the Fall Fest Chair, Renee D'Agata at Fundraising@brooksptomedford.org

The Brooks PTO wants ALL families to participate in Fall Fest so if buying tickets isn’t in the family budget at this moment, please email fundraising@brooksptomedford.org and the PTO will make sure that your child gets tickets at no charge. Your request will be confidential. There is also free tickets available for parents that sign up for volunteer slots that day.

Caregivers of Brooks Elementary students are invited to the school to meet your students' teachers! Note that this is an adults only event.

Each teacher will present the same information twice so that no matter which time slot an adult attends they will receive the same information. 

This allows families that have multiple children to meet with more than one teacher. You will learn all about your child's classroom and the curriculum that will be covered throughout the school year. 

This is not a conference evening, so we ask that if you have any questions or comments regarding your child that you contact the teacher to speak at another time.
