Opportunities to Volunteer with PTA!

Help Wanted

Class and Grade Reps

This year we wish to have Class representatives in Elementary School and Grade Representatives in Middle and High School.

Any parent can become a class or grade rep and you can indeed share the role. Being a class rep means that you are involved with the PTA and the school community. The role will vary from class to class, grade to grade.

Some of the tasks requested of the class / grade rep are:

  1. Act as a liaison between the teachers, parents and the PTA Board.
  2. Assist teachers when requested to.
  3. Provide feedback to the PTA Board from parents and students.
  4. Introduce yourself via email to parents.
  5. Maintain a class / grade list, set up a Whatsapp group to help socialize and communicate appropriate PTA and school news to parents.
  6. Introduce yourself to new parents via email and in person when possible and then to the class / grade community via Whatsapp group and social gatherings.
  7. Encourage attendance of PTA and School events and activities.

A good way to start each semester would be to organize a class coffee morning or evening drinks, providing the opportunity for the parents to get to know each other. As we are a very transient community it would be nice to have at least two socials every semester, so as to provide new parents an opportunity to meet existing ones. After which you can organize as many socials as your group would like.

You are not expected to act as a problem solver on academic or social issues. Please direct parents to the class teacher or relevant Principal.

The PTA Grade Level Coordinator is KJ (Kjellaug) Bakkejord.

Please contact her on pta-glc@isb.ac.th or pta@isb.ac.th

 

Downtown Representative

Calling all social butterflies that live in the city! Would you consider being the PTA’s Downtown Representative?

Your main role would be to socialize at least twice a semester with other parents living in the city and liaise with the Welcome Wai Coordinators.

Yes, the role can be shared.

Career Presentation Coordinator

We are keen to get parents who are passionate about their careers to come and talk to our students as they consider what they might do with their professional lives.

Adult Education Teachers

What is that one thing you make or do that your friends, family or guests are always raving about?

Perhaps it’s time you consider sharing that skill with other people? It’s a great way to socialize and won’t be a long-term commitment.

We have had enquiries about flower decorating, Thai cooking, learning the art of tea drinking, sewing basics etc. We would love to hear from you!
