Mrs. Novak's Message
McGregor Families,
‘Tis the season to give thanks, spread joy and embrace your family!
The month of December will be filled with a lot of exciting events. We are proud to bring back some of McGregor’s time-honored traditions that have been shelved over the last year. Our hope is to make this holiday season a memorable and productive one.
I am so proud of the creativity, grit, and perseverance the McGregor Staff has shown. Their resilience to deliver a well-rounded educational experience is nothing less than extraordinary. Furthermore, I applaud you for your efforts, understanding and teamwork. Together, we can enhance the success of our students, as we assist them along their educational journeys.
In a few short weeks, we will all be given time to pause, take a breath, and enjoy what truly matters in life. I wish you all a happy holiday season and a relaxing winter break. May this new year bring you lots of joy and prosperity in life.
Respectfully,
Mrs. Rachael Novak, ED.S.
McGregor Elementary Principal

Music Night Under Stadium Lights
Brrr it's Cold Outside!
As the temperature drops and the snow arrives, please make sure that your child is dressed for the weather. We will continue to have outdoor recess as long as the temperature and wind chill are safe to go outside. You are welcome to send in snow pants and boots on snowy days. Most students find it easiest to bring these items in a separate bag. Our hope is that everyone stays warm enough to enjoy their time at recess.
We hope you enjoy the change in seasons!

Sibshops
Sibshops are for 8 to 16 year old brothers and sisters who have a sib with special needs. Our Sibshops are run by a team of people who have a professional and, in some cases, a personal understanding of the impact a child’s special needs can have on brothers and sisters. Equally important, they have great kid skills!
Sibshops will have fun outrageous games, cooking activities and hands on activities that will keep your kids engaged in an energetic way!
