ECE-4th grade families, help us plan ahead for next school year by letting us know if your family will be returning to McKinley-Thatcher! Please complete this Google form, or complete and return the paper form in our April 17 Friday Folders by Thursday, April 30. If you are NOT returning, completing this form helps us fill empty spots and make sure our school budget is accurate. (5th grade families do not need to respond.)
3rd, 4th, and 5th grade students are invited to submit a Talent Show audition video anytime between Friday, April 17 and Friday, May 1. Students may sing, dance, act, do a comedy routine, share a special skill, or any other kind of fun act they can think of! Acts should be finished, well-practiced, entertaining, age-appropriate, and around two minutes long. Audition videos may be uploaded to this Google Drive folder.
Please note: this year, our school talent show is open to 3rd, 4th, and 5th grade students ONLY. This means that students in ECE through 2nd grade may not audition with their older siblings.
If you have questions about the Talent Show, please reach out to Ms. Katherine Nelson, our drama teacher, at Katherine_Nelson@dpsk12.net.
Please let us know how we are doing! Send us a shoutout, an idea you have to help us get better, or a concern that you would like addressed. Responses can be submitted using this Google form. Thank you!
