Volunteers needed! We still need folks to help out – especially when we are counting incoming money and making deposits since we need at least two people to count the money and one person to make the deposit.

Room Parents Needed
We are in desperate need of room parents for 3rd, 4th and 5th grade classrooms. The lower grades are covered. If you would like to volunteer for a classroom email us your Teacher. President@
We are looking for two parents per classroom to fill the position of Room Parent. The Room Parent position is a great way to ease your way into the Hillsborough PTA.
What does a Room Parent do? Room Parents will pass along PTA information to your classroom parents. Some tasks Room Parents perform: sorting out their classroom prizes from Read-A-Thon, communicating volunteer opportunities, counting Box Tops from your classroom and helping with your teacher’s Spring Fling classroom basket.
How much time does it take? The time varies depending on the month 1-2 hours a month at the most.
Is it something I can do if I have little kids still at home? Yes and no Some tasks you could easily do with smaller kids in tow- Get them to help count Box Tops! Other jobs might not be suitable for little helpers tagging along, but that is why we are asking for two Room Parents per teacher.
What if my class already has two Room Parents? Send me your information anyway. they might have students in multiple classrooms. I may be able to use them for another teacher and free a spot for you!
