Let’s Team Up! on March 20th

Let’s Team Up! McKinley PTC is hosting volunteer information sessions on Friday, March 20th to get new volunteers involved in PTC events, activities and committees. Three sessions – morning, afternoon and evening will be available to provide for a variety of schedules. This is an informal drop-in session to talk to PTC Committee members who will provide details on what their committee does and a realistic expectation of the amount of time, energy and skills that are needed including whether these things can be done at school, on your own time and/or in the community at large.

Over the course of the past 15 years, McKinley PTC has sophisticated three key fundraising events – Jog-a-thon, SoNo and Gala with the help and commitment of parent volunteers. These funds support the much-loved enrichment programs (garden, ceramics, art, and music next year!) and events like theatre and variety show that create unforgettable memories for our children that are also run by committed volunteers.

These events and activities are successful because of the extraordinary level of parent volunteerism. Attend a session and talk to a committee member for an event or activity that interests you!

While there are many activities and events that could use new volunteers, the ASE (After School Enrichment) Program and SoNo Committee are looking for key planning committee members. We invite parents that have been at McKinley for a few years and are familiar with these programs that want to step up their volunteer efforts to attend the volunteer sessions as well. We regret to say that unless leadership is found for the ASE Program it will not be offered in the Fall of 2020.

We have the best parents and students attending McKinley and know that we will fill every spot available. Let’s team up so that McKinley Elementary will continue to be the best school in North Park!
