✨ **ROUND 2 BOOK GIVEAWAY!** ✨

Help us give these books a wonderful second life and come grab some FREE reads next week!

📅 **Tuesday, June 23rd**
⏰ **9:00 AM - 1:00 PM**
📍 **MHS Library (Enter off W 7th St. through the library doors.)**

Bring a bag and help us clear the shelves! 📚🎒

REMINDER!

MHS has books to give away from our library shelves. Instead of continuing their loneliness in the library, we’d like for our community to peruse and take some books to a good home.

Wednesday, the 17th from 9 am- 1 pm!

📣 McDonald PTO Needs You! 💙

McDonald PTO is currently seeking volunteers, committee members, future leaders, community partners, and supporters for the 2026–2027 school year.

One thing that makes McDonald PTO unique is our commitment to supporting BOTH Roosevelt Elementary and McDonald High School. From our youngest students to our graduating seniors, PTO works to create opportunities, experiences, and support across the entire district.

This past year, PTO helped with or provided:

🎉 Student Events & Experiences
• Roosevelt Open House
• Tailgate & Ram Roast
• Santa’s Workshop
• Snowball Dance
• Junior High Dance
• District Carnival

🍎 Staff & Student Recognition
• Teacher Appreciation Week
• Blue Crew Giveaways
• Scholarships for Graduating Seniors
• Billy Goat Popsicles
• Welcome Back Sign

💙 School & Community Partnerships
• Halloween Pizza at Roosevelt
• District-Wide Village Creamery Treats
• Spirit Wear Sales
• Pie & Pumpkin Roll Fundraisers
• Hat Day & PJ Day Fundraisers
• Partnerships with student organizations, local businesses, and community supporters

As we look ahead, we’d love to continue investing in:

🎓 Learning Beyond the Classroom
🚌 Educational Field Trips & Enrichment Opportunities
🎉 Memorable Student Experiences & School Traditions
🍎 Supporting Teachers & Staff
🏆 Recognizing Student Achievement
🤝 Building Community Partnerships
💙 Creating Opportunities for Every Blue Devil Student

The reality is simple:

These opportunities only happen when people step forward to help.

Without additional volunteers and future leaders, it will become increasingly difficult to continue offering the programs, events, and experiences our students, staff, and families have come to enjoy.

Not interested in attending meetings? That’s okay!

We’re looking for:

✅ PTO Members
✅ Committee Leads
✅ Event Volunteers
✅ Fundraising Volunteers
✅ Community Partners & Sponsors
✅ Future PTO Leaders

Whether you can volunteer once a year, help with a specific event, share an idea, sponsor an activity, or take on a leadership role, we’d love to hear from you.

📅 Officer Self-Nominations Due: June 30, 2026
🗳 Voting Begins: Early July 2026
📣 Results Announced By: Mid-July 2026

We are proud of everything McDonald PTO has accomplished, but we can’t do it alone.

If you’d like to see these programs continue—and help create even more opportunities for our students—we need your help.

Together, we can continue making McDonald a place where every Blue Devil student has the opportunity to learn, grow, and thrive. 💙
