Clubs:
Next week I will be emailing families a link to all of the clubs that are going to be offered this year. The link will include descriptions of each club as well as the day/time each one runs. Club signups will go out Thursday night at 7pm.
McKelvie School Picture Day:
Monday, September 13th is school picture day! Please click HERE for the Geskus flyer to order school photos!
Masks on the Bus:
As a reminder, per CDC order, all students riding the school bus are required to wear a mask. The bus drivers have a limited number of masks to give to students and it would be helpful for all students to bring their own masks.
Library News:
It was another busy week at the McKelvie Intermediate School Library! We have now successfully had all fourteen fifth grade classes come to the library for a "Good Fit Books" introduction. Please click HERE to link to the Library Blog Post for this short week. Happy weekend! ~Julie Cote
SUPPORT THE PTG:
Through Donations and Fundraisers the PTG helps fund…
