3.27.2020 Principal Notes

Dear McKelvie Families~

First and foremost, thank you for the outpouring of support we have received regarding the work that was done to kick off Remote Learning. Given we have never done this before, we are looking for parent feedback as to how the process is going. Please take 5 minutes to fill out a parent survey by clicking the link below. Fill out one form for each child you have at McKelvie, i.e., if you have 2 kids here, fill it out twice. I would LOVE 100% parent participation!

PARENT SURVEY

Snowman Contest:
Thank you to McKelvie Families for sharing your snowmen pictures with us. We had so much fun looking at all of the creations that students made! We had almost 200 snowmen submissions. Below you will find a compilation of a few of the submissions that we received. We randomly selected 4 winners from all of the submissions. The winners are the following:

Ethan in Mrs. Kurtz's classroom
Meredith in Mrs. Burke's classroom
Jacob in Mrs. Correia's classroom
Ethan in Mrs. Parnell's classroom
(We will reach out to winners in a separate email.)

Library News:

Happy Friday, McKelvie! Week 1 of Remote Learning is done. Be proud of yourselves!

I know many of you have emailed about overdue book(s). I appreciate your concern. Please just keep them safe and we will work on returning them in the future. Unfortunately, at this time we are unable to check out print books right now but please be sure to visit the McKelvie Library website and my blog to see how to check out audiobooks, eBooks, and Lightbox Books from the comfort of your home.

Click HERE to see my latest blog post. I would love to hear what students are reading for pleasure. Be sure to check the library blog often, as I will be providing updates throughout our time at home. HERE you will find a link to a LibGuide which I created to provide additional resources and opportunities for you to access during remote learning.

I miss seeing you all! Keep reading and listening to great books. Have a wonderful weekend and be sure to get outside and play! ~Mrs. Cote

Have a restful weekend and as always, email if you have questions or concerns.
