THE SECOND GRADE CLASS of Julie Sorvag was one of several groups of children who entertained parents at the last meeting of the McKinley PTA for the school year. The second graders performed the song “You Light Up My Life” in sign language.
New PTA officers were elected at the meeting held Tuesday, May 23, with Doris Munzin chosen as president for the second year; Resa Packwood, vice-president; Sedilia Casillas, treasurer and Darla Savage secretary. Joan Carey was elected room mother representative; Edith Albers will head the phone committee and Donna Sargent will be the carnival chairman.
Mrs. Munzing reported on McKinley PTA activities over the year which included bringing a children’s jazz workshop from Reno, field trips for classes to the Reno Atmospherium and sponsoring awards for the Science Fair and an Honorary Service Award for McKinley Principal Al Cooper.
PTA meetings during the year dealt with the Mentally Gifted Minors Program, Child Abuse and the closure of Washington School. Mrs. Munzing gave special mention to the third-grade class of Virginia Travis. Three of the classes’ entries in the statewide PTA art project went to the state convention in Fresno.
