Communications


End of the Year Dates- With the last day of school set for June 13th the dates for end of the year activities keep shifting. We are continuously updating our McGlynn PTG 2018-2019 Schedule.

Volunteer Opportunities- There are loads of volunteer opportunities with the end of the year activities. If you are interested in volunteering, please make sure you have a CORI on file with the school. CORI must be completed every year. You can download a CORI Form and send it with a copy of your photo ID in your child's communications folder. Upcoming volunteer opportunities include:

Teacher Appreciation Week (May 6-10th)- Volunteers will be needed to cover classrooms so the teachers can enjoy their appreciation luncheon. We will also need help setting up other appreciation activities throughout the week.

City-wide Electronics Recycling Drive (May 11th 10am-1pm)- We will need volunteers to help operate the drive.

Ice Cream Social (Thursday May 16th)- Volunteers are needed for planning this event as well as for covering activity stations during the event.

Enrichment


Afterschool Lego Club - Keep an eye out for information about the Lego Club in your student's communication folder. The club will be run by Playwell starting April 22nd. It is for students in grades K-3 and cost $120. There will be spots for 12-16 students. The PTG will be offering some partial financial assistance for students whose participation is limited by the cost.


Fundraising

Community Engagement



Spring Room Parent Week- Last week, Room Parents were in the classrooms to do spring crafts - see photos above. Thank you, all! What fun!


5th Grade V. Teachers Basketball Game- The PTG is working with 5th grade parents and teachers on plans to celebrate our 5th graders transition to Middle School. It's a great school-wide event! All proceeds from the event go to fund the PTG's Teacher-Driven Projects program. This program gives teachers small grants to be innovative in their classrooms and around the school.


Teacher Appreciation Week- Teacher Appreciation Week will be May 6th-10th this year. We are working on a lot of great ideas for letting the McGlynn Teachers and staff know how much we appreciate all the work they do. If you are interested in helping out, please reach out to Bailey Schendell (bailey.schendell@gmail.com).


Fun Day- Fun Day is scheduled for Friday, June 7th. Fun Day is the McGlynn's version of field day. There is a bunch of outdoor activities, including bouncy houses, a dunk tank, and balloon toss. We are going to need a lot of parent volunteers to make this day happen! If you are interested in volunteering, please make sure you have a CORI on file with the school. CORI must be completed every year. You can download a CORI Form and send it with a copy of your photo ID in your child's communications folder.
