Parents and educators of Winsor and McCabe students gathered last night at the first unification meeting. What a awesome (and large) group of caring individuals! Our mission is to build a cohesive school culture that unites the students and staff of McCabe ES and Winsor ES through events, communication, and other means. Meeting minutes will be distributed by PTOs, principals, and by posting on the building project webpage.
