Winnebago PTO looking forward to the 2013-14 school year

Winnebago Parent-Teacher Organization (PTO) is planning ahead for 2013-14 school year. I know it seems a little out of the ordinary to be looking ahead for the new school year of 2013-14. This is only a small part of what makes our organization successful. The other and much larger part is YOU!

Winnebago PTO is looking for 

Jean McNair fourth graders partcipate in a Math-a-thon

In February, we told you about our dream to fall in love with St. Jude Children’s Hospital, by raising money for them.  We were blown away by all of the donations and support from our Winnebago Community!  Our goal was to raise $2,500.  Guess what?!  We passed it!  Our final total was 2,917.  Our teachers showed us how proud they were by going “crazy with color”.

Helping Hearts from Jean McNair fourth grade students

Winnebago students know the good feeling that comes from helping others!  The fourth-graders at Jean McNair Elementary considered the homeless and united to make a little go a long way. Small travel-size items were collected to donate to the Rockford Rescue Mission.  The actual donations greatly exceeded the initial estimates.

Winnebago School District now has AR Enterprise

The Winnebago School District is fortunate to have been able to update our AR (Accelerated Reading) program. With this program, we are able to bring the classroom right into your students’ homes for reading success.

From the Jean McNair Nurses' Desk

Vision and Hearing problems greatly impact your child's education.  Therefore, the school nurses will begin screening students for vision and hearing during the months of November and December.

Food Allergies at Jean McNair

Food allergies are a growing concern in schools across America. Millions of children - children who are perfectly healthy and normal in every other way – must watch every single bite they eat, or risk suffering a severe or even life threatening reaction.
