ROOM PARENTS NEEDED!
We’re looking for parent volunteers to serve as Room Parents for each classroom this year! Room Parents help strengthen the connection between teachers, families and the PTA by:
Supporting communication with families in your class
Helping teachers organize class parties, celebrations and other needs throughout the year
Coordinating one grade-level Teacher Appreciation effort
Pitching in with other small classroom and PTA tasks as they come up
It’s a fun and low-lift way to get involved, get to know your classroom community and support our teachers.
Interested in serving as a Room Parent or Co-Room Parent?

BROMWELL CSC NOMINATIONS ARE OPEN
Nominations are now open for the Bromwell Collaborative School Committee (CSC) for the 2026–27 school year. Two seats are open: 1 Parent Representative and 1 Community Member.
See the Bromwell CSC Process Letter for full details.
TRANSPORTATION INFORMATION
For families whose students use DPS transportation:
School Bus: Bus route information should be available in Parent Portal. Families can also use the MyRide K-12 app to monitor bus information in real time.
If your student rides a DPS school bus, please remind them to use their QR code bus passcard each time they board and exit the bus. Using the passcard helps families:
Track when their student gets on and off the bus
Receive alerts when the bus is approaching their stop
More quickly locate a student if there is ever a concern
Learn more and access MyRide K-12
Car Service: Families whose students receive transportation through car service should use the HopSkipDrive or EverDriven app for ride information and updates.
PLEASE COMPLETE THE YOU BENEFIT! APPLICATION
All Bromwell families are strongly encouraged to complete the You Benefit! application.
Completing the application helps determine critical funding for Bromwell and DPS, regardless of whether your family qualifies for benefits. Families who do qualify may also be eligible for reduced or waived school-related fees, including activity, field trip, course, athletic, ACT and SAT fees.
