President's Message

Hey McKillop Families,

Spring is here, and we’re heading into a busy and exciting stretch at McKillop! Before everyone heads off for Spring Break next week, we have a few updates, upcoming events, and opportunities to stay connected with the PTO and our school community.

Be sure to scroll through this newsletter for the latest news, ways to get involved, and a look at what’s coming up. Thank you, as always, to the parents, teachers, and volunteers who help make McKillop such a special place for our students.

Wishing all of our Cardinals a fun and restful Spring Break!

With Gratitude,           

Katy Vendetti, PTO President

Announcements
SAVE THE DATE - PARENT PTO MEETING

Our Parent Information Meeting about the McKillop PTO, originally scheduled in January but cancelled due to weather, has been rescheduled for Tuesday, March 31 at 6:00 PM.

If you’ve ever wondered what the PTO does, how funds are used, or how parents can get involved, this meeting is a great opportunity to learn more. We’ll walk through the many ways the PTO supports students, teachers, and the school throughout the year and share how families can plug in if they’re interested.

All parents and guardians are welcome. Location details will be shared soon.
