A Note From Community Council: Meet Our Artist in the School: Elizabeth Nelson
Elizabeth Nelson is going to be extremely busy teaching our kids the art of theater performance for two weeks beginning after Thanksgiving. If you are interested in having her over to share a meal, providing a “to go” meal, or taking her out to your favorite local eatery, please use the QR code or link below to sign up for a dinner date! Make sure that you specify what you will be cooking or where you will be going. To go meals can be delivered to McNeil Canyon Elementary before 3pm on the day you’ve sign up to provide one (don’t forget cooking instructions). We encourage all McNeil families to take advantage of this opportunity to spend time with our amazing and interesting artist!

Cross Country Ski Helpers
Anne Love is our returning after-school cross country ski coach and she is looking for a helper who is experienced with sizing to help size kids next month in preparation for beginning the ski program.
We are hoping to start our Skiing program on Mondays after Winter Break. We also need parent helpers every Monday once the ski program starts. How many helpers we have will determine how many skiers we can have. You must be a KPBSD approved volunteer to help. Please contact Anne at alove@kpbsd.k12.ak.us or call the school office.
