Rah, McGaugh!

Welcome to the 2021-2022 School Year! 

The award-winning McGaugh PTA is so happy to welcome all of our families to this exciting school year!

We've got a lot of fun activities and fundraisers planned as we return to campus with a full day schedule and traditional school year.

The best way to support our staff and students is to continue the “magic” of McGaugh’s community by joining the PTA, attending the meetings, and getting involved!  Here's some important things to remember:

1) Anyone can join - parents AND extended family, plus students, teachers, community members, alumni

2) A membership is one of the best ways to become involved - it allows you to vote on our our programs and support our teachers and students throughout the year!

**Save the Date** - Our first PTA meeting will be Thursday, September 2nd at 8:15am in the McGaugh Auditorium

Kind Regards,
Denyse Rabbat
PTA President
