Dear McKenzie Lake Families,
This past week we wrapped up our second Parent Teacher Conference of the school year and we were happy to see so many families turn out. Many students were observed touring their parents through the ReconciliACTIONS TREX Art Exhibit that we have for the next couple of weeks, and watching the video clips of music class in action before and after their conference times with teachers. If you were unable to book a conference with your child's teacher, you can call or email the teacher to book a time to meet in person, online or over the phone. We were also pleased to see that 46 items from our Lost and Found were claimed, yet 125 items remain. Parents are able to stop by the school and visit the Lost and Found to claim any items that belong to your family.
Purdy's Chocolate Fundraiser – Last day to order is Sunday, November 26
Our School Council has set up a Purdy's Chocolate fundraiser, which will be open for orders until November 26. Chocolates will be delivered to the school before winter break.

Winter Celebration
Parents with children in Grades 3-5, mark your calendars for Thursday, December 14. Ms. Kvicala is working with students to prepare a Winter Celebration and inviting parents to attend one of two performances. Due to the capacity restrictions in our gymnasium, we are able to provide each family with two tickets to the evening performance that will begin at 6:00pm. We are also opening up an afternoon performance for families to attend, which will begin at 1:00pm. (Our Spring Celebration will include students in Grades K-2)
MLS Family Dance
Our School Council is looking into organizing a Family Dance in the month of March. In order to host evening events such as this, many volunteers are required to plan, set up, supervise and clean up. If you are available to support in anyway, please email mlschoolcouncil@gmail.com. In your email, please include your first/last name, phone number and how you would like to contribute to helping make this event possible. At the December School Council meeting, they will determine if they had enough people express interest in volunteering to make a school dance possible.
Sincerely,
Dayna McComish
