At the beginning of every school year, the lead room parent of each class has the task of creating and distributing the phone tree for their class. Instead of everyone having to create their own format, we have created templates for phone trees to make the job a little easier.
There are four templates (column x row): 3x5, 3x6, 4x5, and 4x6 for various class sizes. All documents were created in Microsoft Word and use tables. The names in the table are merely examples. Please select the cells and replace the existing names with those in your class. If you need additional rows, just hit the tab key with the cursor in the last cell (bottom, right hand corner). You can copy and paste the down arrows into the new row.
Note: The telephone tree is intended for use in special circumstances, such as relaying notice of a school closing during inclement weather. As you relay the relevant phone message and you get an answering machine or no response at the phone number you're calling, please skip to the next name down on the list to keep the message going.
Good luck and we hope this is helpful!
Sincerely,
GDS PSA
