Principal's Message
Families may be hearing from Staff at McNair who are reaching out in an attempt to help complete the Online Data Confirmation for this school year. Also, Technology staff will be sending out Sign Now emails to parents of students with missing race and ethnicity information in Aeries. This step is essential for ensuring accurate CALPADS data. If you have any questions about this, please do not hesitate to reach out to us.
Halloween is this Thursday. For those students who will be dressing in costumes, please know that we do not allow masks, and we do not allow any item which can be a weapon or replica weapon, or anything that can be considered tactical in nature. If you have questions, please reach out to McNair Administration.
Have a wonderful week!
Mrs. Nicole Vertar, M. Ed.
