Important Dates and Upcoming Events!!!!

So, I'm kind of freaking out a little that we are in the third week of November.  Where did the year go?  With the weather being so nice, and this little snow we've had now, I am quickly realizing I need to switch to Christmas and Holiday gear!  The dead line to order from the MTSPA Poinsettia Fundraiser is this FRIDAY NOVEMBER 18th !!!  There are three GREAT options to chose from .  The GORGEOUS Christmas Basket makes an excellent hostess/mother in-law gift, or, if you are a minimalist, makes a wonderful decoration on a center kitchen island or coffee table!!  The FRESH WREATH hung on your door is both welcoming and festive with  hint of pine!  So nice!  And finally, nothing says Christmas and Holiday like a beautiful red, white or pink Poinsettia, arranged in pairs on the steps or a single on the mantle, so pretty!

Even one poinsettia order helps provide valuable funds to your childs school and support their learning and playing!  If you have any questions about ordering, contact Leanne at fundraising@mtsparents.com.  We look forward to delivering you these beautiful and festive holiday flowers!!!

Happy Holidays,
In trust,

Calling ALL McKenzie Towne Community Members - Important Update on Proposed Walk Zone

As many of you know, the proposed walk zone for the new McKenzie Highlands Middle School requires children in the walk zone to cross the traffic circle in the morning and afternoon.  This affects not only the families that will be walking, but ALL motorists that use the traffic circle.  There is an opportunity to learn more about proposed walk zone changes and there will be an opportunity to get more information about where to voice  your concerns.  Please join us Saturday November 19th at 1000 am where a "Walkthrough" will take place.  Walk begins at McKenzie Towne School and will commence at McKenzie Highlands School.  Follow this LINK for more details.  We hope to see you there!!  This affects our whole community, come and have a voice.

Remembrance Day at McKenzie Towne School

With the weather changing and the furnace turning on, it is time to start thinking about how to commemorate Remembrance day in our school, and so the MTSPA is putting a call out to our families to see if you might know some talented bloke who will attend our school for a Remembrance Day assembly and gift us with their talent of playing the bagpipes.  If you are able to play, or know someone who could play for our school community, please contact Jenn at chair@mtsparents.com

Stay warm out there!
