Daily Update 4/6

Hello McSwain Families

As we head into Spring Break, I want to thank all our amazing families for their support in Reading is Fun Week. Here at McSwain, we empower our students, and literacy is key. This week helped showcase our focus on reading, and I want to thank all our students, staff, and families for making this a fantastic week! We were able to raise over eighteen thousand dollars that can be used for field trips, R&R rewards, graduation activities, and special projects.

Fantastic work, Mustang Family! Here are some quick updates.

Modern Warriors

Over the past few weeks, our Tk-3rd grade students have worked with a local community group called the Modern Warriors.

Modern Warriors focus on self-discipline and physical activity.

Please see this attached flyer if anyone in the community wants to attend one of their sessions.

Teacher Appreciation Week

This year, teacher appreciation week will be from May 8th- May 12th

In celebrating our fantastic staff, our parent-teacher club will be hosting a luncheon

If you are interested in donating a dessert, please fill out this survey

The parent club will be following up with you grading additional details before the teacher appreciation luncheon.

Survey Reminder

Families play an essential role in the school success of children. You can get involved and support your children’s learning in many ways. Whether you attend our Parent Teacher Club meetings, are a member of our McSwain foundation, volunteer in your child’s classroom, help with the book fair, or just read with your child at home each night, you are making a contribution that will help your child do well in school.

Family engagement is strong here at McSwain. As we continue to build and strengthen our relationships, we want to make sure that we hear directly from our stakeholders,

You can help us form a better partnership between school and home by answering the questions on the attached survey. This survey is entirely online, and the responses will help us gather feedback from our families. Please complete this survey by April 16th.

Spring Break

We are on Spring Break starting Friday, April 7th, to April 16th.

Our staff is making sure they are taking the time to rest so they are ready to be with your students post-break and finish the school year strong.

Students will return to school on April 17th.

Have a fantastic Spring Break, Mustangs!
