June 2 Update

Dear Parents and Guardians,



The turning of the calendar to June signals the fast approaching end of the school year.  I would like to use this opportunity to give everyone a few important end-of-the-year reminders.



Early Release Days – Please do not forget that June 14, 17, and 18 are all early release days for all McCall students.  Dismissal time will be at 12:00 pm for all three days.



BYOD Loaner Chromebooks – We will not be asking families who are using district Chromebooks for the BYOD program to return the machines to us for the summer.  Please keep those laptops so students can use them during the summer and next school year.  This includes all outgoing 8th grade students who plan to attend WHS next school year.  They will be using the Chromebooks assigned to them by McCall at the high school.  However, we will be collecting Chromebooks from all students who are exiting the school district or have decided no longer to borrow Chromebooks from the district for next school year.  The collection time is scheduled from 1:00-3:00 pm on June 18, and 19 in the McCall Library.  Please plan accordingly.



We encourage all students whose Loaner Chromebooks are not functioning correctly to please bring them into the main office so we can repair or replace them before summer vacation starts.



8th Grade Moving On Ceremony – All 8th grade families please remember that the Moving On Ceremony is scheduled to take place on June 18th at 6:30 pm.  The event will take place on Knowlton Field.  The location will be moved to the high school field house if rain is predicted. 



The McCall Parent Association is sponsoring a Grade 8 dance to take place in the McCall Cafeteria immediately following the ceremony until 9:30 pm.  All 8th grade students are invited to attend.



Washington, DC Trip Registration – All 7th grade families please remember that the early registration deadline for the 2020 DC trip is this Thursday June 6th.  I strongly encourage you to register before the deadline to take advantage of the $75 discount.  Please make sure you consult the DC Information web pages (please click here) for more information if you have not done so already.



Thank you and enjoy the upcoming week.
