New playground paint!

New playground paint

Last Wednesday, the Playworks staff and Coach Nick were fortunate to lead a group of volunteers from Cigna in a service project to improve our playground here at McCall. The existing lines, perimeter of footprints, and classroom numbers were all re-highlighted for our staff and students to enjoy.

The color scheme is brought closer to the McCall School colors just in time for Blue and Gold Day!

5th Annual Casino Night & Silent Auction

thanks

What a wonderful night! Thank you for your support and enthusiasm! We had around 200 people in attendance at our 5th Annual Casino Night & Silent Auction!! We had our first ever live auction component, which was a big success! We are still finalizing our results — stay tuned!

This event was an incredible show of support for McCall: parents, teachers, incoming parents, former parents, community members with no tie to McCall — all celebrating together! Thanks to everybody who procured  or donated auction items, collected sponsorships, worked that night in a planned or unplanned capacity (thanks to so many who happily jumped in to help!), or helped by attending and bidding! We all made this successful event happen!

Thank you!!
