We know that the Weather Outside is frightful, but with one day of school left in 2013 we would ask that parents continue to be consciencous during drop-off and pick-up times.

Please do not block alleys or crosswalks to drop-off children.
A reminder from the school that the staff parking lot is also not to be used for drop-offs or pick-ups. 

Parent Council is working with the City of Calgary to create a drop-off zone in front of the school and we are just waiting to here back from the planning department. 

We appreciate everyone's patience as we try to ameliorate the parking situation, in the meantime lets all work together to make all our children safe.

Happy Holidays!

Tomorrow is the last day of school before Winter break.

The McKenzie Towne School Parent Association wishes everyone a safe & happy holiday season.

All the best in 2014!

McKenzie Towne Needs a Middle School!

If we want our children to go to middle school in their own community and not bussed down the Deerfoot every day we need to act now.  CBE has changed their ranking system and we are moving down the list.  We need to write our MLA's, our school trustee and any other provincially elected representative you can think of.  We have been told that the amount of emails received really make a difference!

Email, Write a letter, Tweet!  Whatever method you choose, just do it!

Call for volunteers - Traffic Safety Week

We need a couple volunteers to help encourage street safety at Mckenzie Towne School in a fun way by reinforcing safe practices. If you have a few minutes to spare next week before or after school next week we are looking for a couple more volunteers for these times: Monday to Friday 8:00 - 8:25am and after school Tuesday 2:55 - 3:20pm and Friday 12 - 12:30pm  

We are running the Positive Pointers program during Calgary School Traffic Awareness Week, where volunteers will hand out "tickets" to people they see practising safe traffic or crossing habit, as seen below. The tickets can be completed and return to the school and entered into a draw. 

Please let Jenn at vicechair@mtsparents.com know which time (or times) you can spare a few minute to help encourage our school to set an example for our community. Jenn will answer any questions regarding the commitments and will brief the volunteers on their duties. 

Check out this link for tips to earn your tickets when manoeuvring around the school next week.

SUTP Time Again!

Last week the students were sent home with the SUTP Order forms.  This is an amazing fundraising opportunity for our school as we receive 50% of proceeds from every book sold.  In past years that has meant new computers, residencies like Alien In-line and new books for the learning commons.  So please sell as many as you can so we can continue to enrich the classrooms in our
school.

This year the incentive is an ipod touch entry for every book sold.

Order forms are due back by October 11, 2013. You can send your order in at anytime. We return the envelope so when you get more you can resend it.

Thank you,
MTSPA

MTSC and MTSPA Meeting Recap

Monday night was a full night of discussion.  It was one of those meetings you didn't want to miss.  Some of the topics discussed in the School Council included: Traffic updates and a Grade 4 graduation legacy project to continue into future years. There was also a presentation on the need for computers and added technology to bring MTS up to standards with the rest of the CBE.

Ms. Pollock and Ms. Kruger talked about the live creatures they are working with their students to raise. The grade 2's currently have 4 ducks they watched hatch and will raise for 3 weeks in their classroom.  The Grade 1's are raising butterflies.

The Leadership update included a breakdown of the classroom structure for next year.  They also discussed a new program MTS will be doing next year called Safe and Caring School. We were chosen for a 1 year scholarship with this program. It will involve staff resources, training and a parent event.

Teacher Appreciation will be on June 19th. There is also a Talent Show that afternoon.

MTSPA made many motions to fund various school projects including technology, beautification, and a free fun lunch.  June 20 will be the Stampede celebration with the Stampede crew coming out to teach line dancing. This includes pancakes done by the Batter Boys.  September 6, 2013 will be our muffin mixer for parents to meet up before classes start that first week of back to school.

Our Casino request for volunteers was very successful having all positions filled!!!!

Many of our School Council / Parent Association positions are coming open in September.  Please email any of us if you would like information on various positions.  The links are on the left hand side of our blog.  We will post a full list of positions at a later date.  The one position that really needs to be filled earlier is the Treasurer as there is some training that needs to happen.

Our June mtg has been suspended. So our next meeting will be the AGM on September 30, 2013

Meeting Reminder, Monday night 6:30pm

Its going to be a busy night as the school year gets another month closer to winding down.  Come out and hear from Grade 1 and 2 teachers Mrs. Karmen Kruger and Ms. Kendra Pollock share classroom experiences.
Our leadership report will preview the school organization, talk about how MTS staff and students are paying forward, and let us know about a new program the school will be participating in to continue strengthening the nurturing nature of our school.
We will try to rap up spending for the year in order to start budgeting for the next, looking at how to use the fun lunch surplus and other loose ends.
Many positions on the council and parents association will be opening up as parents move to the middle school with their children or take on other challenges with the council and parents association.  This will be a great meeting to join and see what each of the positions are about. Being apart of this process is a great way to make change and support the things you happiest about at MTS.

Hope to see you there.

Dr. Slater and Mrs. Reichardt shared some exciting updates with us! Our school now has a snow-blower in addition to our snow-removal tractor. This means that when there are heavy snowfalls Sandy will have an alternative to snow-removal over the tractor which gets repeatedly stuck in large depths of snow. Much of our snow removal still has to be done by hand so please be patient.

More exciting news!! Our school will be receiving it's final set of relocatables this year! They should be up and ready for use come September!

In preparation for Tony Bromhead, principal of David Thompson Middle School, coming to address our Parent Council next month there was much discussion about topics we would like him address.

January 28, 2013 Meeting Recap

McKenzie Towne School Council and Parent Association has many positions opening up this year. Now is the time to come in and talk to the people leaving their positions to find out what they do.  Some positions - like Treasurer need to be orientated before they can fully take on the position.  Some of the positions projected for openings are Treasurer, President, Fundraising Director and possible others.  The Council Members sign up for 2 year terms.  Having been on the council now for almost 2 years I can speak honestly when I say it is the best way to find out what is happening in the school and we really do help guide where the school goes. Our School Leadership Team listens and this truly is a partnership. 

Thank you to Ms. Edey, Ms. Young and Mrs. Hull for discussing their classroom projects with us.  The Leadership Team provided and update on Trickster Theatre - we loved it!  They also discussed projected enrollment for our school.
