Mrs. McLenithan
My name is Carla McLenithan, better known as Mrs. Mac.
In 2013 my husband Greg and I moved from a small town in lower Michigan, to Merrill Wisconsin. The following year I was hired as a paraprofessional at Jefferson Elementary. Having over 17 years experience as a paraprofessional in Michigan, I was delighted to be continuing in the same line of work. I always knew I wanted to work with children, and am blessed everyday with their smiles, hugs, drawings, and daily jokes. Our oldest son Steve and his girlfriend Sara live in New Mexico where we visit as often as possible.Our youngest son Brian & his wife Jennifer also live in Merrill. They are expecting their first baby in June 2019. Yay! We’re going to be grandparents! I enjoy baking, reading, camping, hiking and working in my flower gardens.
Volunteering
Here is the link to the form you need to complete.
PBIS
With our school's unique feature of not having traditional hallways, these learning spaces can be tricky as some students may be coming in from recess while others are out there learning and working. It is important that we remember to use our whisper voices, so that these students do not get distracted.
Here are the common expectations for the learning lounge:
Be Safe
- Stay seated
- Keep your hands, feet, and objects to yourself
Be Responsible
- Remember to be quiet & clean
- Be prepared and stay on task
- Use your time wisely
Be Respectful
- Use materials and furniture correctly
- Voice at a level 0 (silent) or 1 (whisper)

We will then issue a Bus Pass for them to get off the bus at PRMS. Thank you for your help!
STRUGGLING FINANCIALLY?
During this festive season of giving, it often becomes difficult to make ends meet. Are you struggling to pay for your child’s meals at school? You may qualify for the Federal Free and Reduced School Meal program. The program is confidential (your child doesn’t even have to know) and easy to apply for. To view some frequently asked questions, visit the Food Service website: http://www.taherfood4life.org/schools/merrill/freereduced-meals/
We have also included the application below for your convenience. Please fill out both pages and return it in a sealed envelope with “MAPS Food Service” written on the front and we will submit it for you. If you would like us to send home a printed copy, please let us know and we would be happy to do so!
