McCarthy-Towne Buddy Family Program
Would you like to welcome new families to McCarthy-Towne?
Do you have tips and tricks to share about our school?
Do you have a facility in another language?
If you answered YES to ANY of these questions, please consider becoming a
McCarthy-Towne Buddy Family.
The McT Buddy Family program matches veteran McT families to families with children in grades 1 - 6 who are new to McT.
The buddy family is asked to make an initial phone call to the new family and extend a welcome message. When you are new to town or to the school, there are loads of questions. It’s nice to have the name and number of someone who might know the answers!
We are always looking for more buddy families to volunteer to help the new families that arrive at McT throughout the year. Providing buddies for families whose first language is not English is especially helpful.
If you are interested in signing up to be a buddy family, or if you would just like more details about the program, please contact Mariah.
