Roles and Responsibilities in the Co-Op

Teachers

The role of the teacher is to provide a stimulating environment in which  children can learn crucial skills, build self-esteem through varied and age-appropriate play experiences, interact with other children and adults, and develop a deep love for learning. The staff members of each class meet weekly to determine  specific aspects of the curriculum and to discuss issues, concerns and observations of the children. All of our teachers work together with the  parents to ensure the safety and well-being of each child. 

Working Parents

Each member is assigned to work in the classroom on a rotating basis.  Parents act as Teacher's Aides, helping children with art projects,  inside and outside activities, and maintaining general order and  cleanliness during class. The "Snack Parent" is additionally responsible for preparing the morning snack and supplementing it with fresh fruits or vegetables. 

Class Representatives

Each class has a member who acts as a liaison between their class and the Board of Directors. Part of their responsibilities include arranging  volunteer help for class parties, scheduling "Mom's Night Out" and "Dad's Night Out" and assisting the Staff with classroom help (such as  taking candid photos of the children at  school). The Class Rep is also responsible for creating the  "working-parent" schedule (distributed electronically in advance). Each parent is responsible for submitting their monthly work requests to the  Class Rep by the 5th of the preceding month. Parents will receive their working schedules by the 15th of that same preceding month 

Committee Assignments

We owe our success not only to our experienced and dedicated staff, but also to our amazing parents' special talents and the preschool depends on their help for everything from laundering towels and costumes  to running our fundraisers. When you join WPNS, the Vice President of  the Board will contact you to coordinate an appropriate committee  assignment. 

Which brings us to, our...
