Senior Parent Coffee
This has been a difficult time for all of our students, but we truly understand that our Seniors are really missing so many end of the year celebrations. Many parents have questions about how to support your Senior, how to order transcripts, possibilities of end of the year celebrations, Senior dues, and much more. Join us this Friday, April 17, from 9:00-10:00 a.m. to go over any remaining questions you have for your Seniors students. If you have questions or concerns that you would like addressed, please submit them here (https://forms.gle/rykr3iFqHhykPpRA8) by Thursday at 9:00 a.m. The PTSA will moderate this question and answer session. Also, it is a great time for our parents to connect with each other and share how they are supporting their Seniors at home.
School staff who will be attending the meeting: Ellen Reilly, Principal; Paul Stansbery, Director of Student Services; Beth Werfel, School Psychologist; Marly Jerome-Featherson, School Social Worker; and Nishi Langhorne, Technology Specialist.
We will be meeting virtually through Blackboard Collaborate Ultra. This is the platform our students are using to connect with their teachers. We will send out the link Thursday night with instructions on how to connect.
Virtual Parent Town Hall Meeting
Please join us for a Virtual Parent Town Hall with McLean's Administrative Team on Friday, April 17th from 11:00 am-12:00 pm. With distance learning officially starting, this is an opportunity to share your questions and concerns, as well as connect with other parents.
