Jingle Bell Thanks
Thank you to Cailin Nelson and her volunteer crew for carrying on with our winter school tradition and organizing the Jingle Bell Jog! It was wonderful to see everyone enjoying the holiday spirit (along with the tasty treats), as well as the whole McNear community getting a chance to connect before heading off on the break.
2019 PTA Positions
ASE
Our incredible After-School Enrichment coordinator Jeanne Schroeder will be passing the torch next year, after a number of years helping to grow the program. In preparation for this, we're hoping to find one or two parents who will take over. We'd love to be able to have them shadow Jeanne as she puts together our winter/spring program, to make it easier for next year. It's not a huge time commitment, but does form a critical part of our after-school programming.
PTA Board
We're looking for parents to join next year's PTA Board. We have a few positions opening up, with varying levels of time commitment. This is a terrific opportunity to guide the extensive work that the McNear PTA does in supporting the school community. We're especially interested to hear from parents of kids who are in the lower grades, since they're the ones who will benefit most. No experience necessary, just a desire to be part of one of the county's most successful PTAs.
Spring Performing Arts Info
The Casting Call for all 2nd and 3rd graders will be on Thursday, January, 17. Performances will be on April 5 & 6. Additional information and registration will be available when we return to school in January.
We are looking for adults to join our team of directors - we cannot do this show without a few more volunteers. There are many ways and levels to be involved. Please let me know if you are interested. You can reach me at donniemfrank@gmail.com.
