Learn more & choose a level: Business Sponsor Info & Sign-Up

2) Teacher Appreciation Sponsor: Pick a month to treat our 65 teachers and staff—provide breakfast/lunch/treats or donate and we’ll handle ordering. Includes lounge signage, social shout-out, ROAR placement, and a thank-you certificate.

Room Parents
Room Parents Needed for 2025 - 2026

Interested in getting involved with your student's class this year? Consider volunteering as a room parent!


Room Parents are the official liaison between teachers and class families. Some classes may have Co-Room Parents or the Room Parent might organize a committee to support the teacher and classroom throughout the school year. There is support available--room parents do not have to do everything!


We want to build a strong community and room parents play an important role in involving classroom parents so that they feel more connected, empowered, and an integral part of their child's education. 


Reach out to the Room Parent Coordinator at volunteer@baldwinpta.org if you have any questions.

Scavenger Hunt and Ice Cream Social

Our first FREE community program of the year! 

Meet at the Baldwin Circle Drive, grab a cold sweet treat from Danny's Ice Cream Truck then go on a scavenger hunt around the school to hunt for clues and earn a prize! Grab a friend and make new friends on Sunday, September 7th from 3-4:30pm.
