Muscota New School Blog

Though I love a good challenge, I must say this year has been smooth sailing!  The PA is hitting its groove and the teachers are sailing through like the pros they are.  Everytime I am in the school I see smiling faces and feel the good vibes from all the kids and teachers.  If you haven’t been in the school in a while, then come on over!  We miss you.  Parents create a feeling of family at the school and the teachers could use your help.  Just ask them.

There will be two trainings for parent volunteering at the school this Monday, Novemeber 16th and again on Monday, November 23rd.  Learning Leaders will be giving a comprehensive workshop going over the rules and code of conduct.  It is an education no volunteer should miss!   Meet in the cafeteria at 8:40am.

This Friday is our November general meeting for the Parents Association.  6:30pm in the library, 4th floor.

Please come for more updates and news.  And as always- I am there to hear you and see if I can help answer your questions.

Be well,

Shannon

What can I say?  I love it when you were going to do something anyway and find out there are perks!  Like when you go buy that face lotion at Macys and you happen to get a free gift too?  Well, regardless if you get my last reference, you all know what it feels like [...]

Thanks, Kari for creating this Blog!  Parents asked and here it is: A Blog about PA stuff.
I just returned from our final SLT meeting and feel very hopeful about next year even though we are facing even more budget cuts.  $380,000.00 to be exact.  So if you thought this year was lean, you have seen [...]
