Mac’s Notes – April 25

April 25, 2025, Mac’s Facts & Mac’s Notes —

Dear Scottie Families,

Thank you for celebrating your gifts with us at our annual Parent Volunteer Appreciation Breakfast. We loved hearing presentations and viewing the artwork our students created to celebrate all of you! We are incredibly grateful for the program and school community you helped us build and continue to nurture.

April Earth Month Tip

Watch out for greenwashing! Only items marked as compostable can go in the yard waste/compost bin. Bags marked as “biodegradable,” “environmentally friendly,” etc. go in the trash.

Let’s make it a great week!

Sincerely,

Zoe Facilla
