As part of a Zak Pack project, these talented ladies conducted research and designed a new McZakar's Fun Zone! They examined several factors such as appearance, health, popularity of attractions, and most importantly, fun! We've got some future engineers on our hands :)

Today Principal Jackson and Secretary Louis ruled the school! Principal Jackson was a big hit as he decided to give the whole school an extra 15 minute recess! They did an amazing job keeping the school running smoothly and organized. I think we have some future leaders here!
We are already busy preparing for the 22-23 school year! Our district consultant Tracey Severns met with teachers to discuss best practices for the co-teaching model. Teachers are lifelong learners!
