[quote=Anonymous]I was the Room Mom for my daughter's class last year.  I only got the job because no one else signed up and I happened to be in the right place at the wrong time.  I had a hard time getting people to volunteer for most things, but a decent core of parents who could always be counted on.  I also had a lot of parents who were interested only in volunteer opportunities that allowed them to go into the classroom to help, but nothing else.  Then there were the complete crazies, which were few but vocal.

I noticed at my Back to School night last night that the Room Parent position was still open.  I thought that maybe I'd sign up because it wasn't too horrible last year, but after the Question and Answer period with insane parent questions, I decided that someone else could have that honor this year. :)

Anyway, I think that it really depends on the class and school.  It can also depend on the year.  I know that they take great pains to get the kids mixed into classrooms, but it would be better for the PTA to spread out those parents that want to volunteer. :)
