DEAR McCALL FAMILY,

Congratulations to Merry Monday Faculty and Staff Appreciation Breakfast Chair Jessica Mosur Joseph, and to volunteers and donors for a fabulous breakfast spread! From the homemade lemon tart to toffee chocolate chip scones, to the fresh bagels and schmear, fresh fruit salad and yogurt, to dozens of donuts and even a Yule Log, McCall HSA's annual Merry Monday breakfast brought many smiles for to our teachers, staff, and crossing guard! Thank you to Art Teacher Ms. Erica Mandell for making the "We <3 McCall Teachers and Staff" banner, decorated by students. For photos, visit Friends of McCall Facebook group: CLICK HERE

Wintertime is concert time at Philly public schools! Get into the holiday spirit with special performances this week: 

On Tuesday, 12/18, all McCall first grade students will have their own special performance at 9 AM in the school's auditorium.

Then, on Friday, 12/21, McCall families, friends, and neighbors are welcome to attend McCall's Winter Concert, featuring 3rd to 8th grade students participating in McCall's Choir, Band, and String programs! Due to space constraints, Principal McKenna invites families, friends, and neighbors to attend either the 9 AM performance or the 1:45 PM performance. Even if your child isn't performing, McCall Choir, Band, and String students would love to have an enthusiastic audience. We hope you can stop by and cheer. 

As an HSA, we are here to serve the entire school community. Have ideas about how to foster community at McCall? We want to hear from you! Recently, McCall parent Elle reached out to suggest a "McCall Warm Fuzzies" winter accessories drive, benefiting McCall students. McCall school guidance counselor Ms. Jennifer Beebe Poulos was happy to partner with us! Between now and January 11, we will have donation hampers in the Main Office for new gloves, scarves, jackets, boots, and hats. Any student can stop by the Main Office and grab what they need. Best of all, unclaimed donations will be donated to Cradles to Crayons. Thank you, Elle and Ms. Poulos, for reminding us to spread cheer and goodwill this holiday season!

In case you missed it, last Thursday, December 13, the HSA held its monthly general membership meeting. We presented the school's budget, an update on our Bathroom Renovation Project, our monthly financial report, a copy of the fundraising requests received to date (which we review with Principal Stephanie McKenna), as well as copy of City Council testimony provided to new Board of Education and City Council. Visit www.mccallschool.org, where we will post the documents. Our next HSA meeting will be held on January 9 at 7 PM, for those interested in helping with McCall's largest school fundraiser: the McCall Gala. If you are interested in attending, please contact President@McCallSchool.org. 

As we plan for 2019, we are interested in hosting meetings throughout the catchment. Would you like to help us plan meetings in Old City, Washington Square West, or Chinatown? Reply to this email!

Thank you also for those who have given their time and talents to support our school. If you have an hour or more to volunteer, here are upcoming volunteering opportunities to consider:
