Together, we can ensure that ALL our kids have a great year. McKinley has H.E.A.R.T!

A huge thank you to the McKinley community for coming out to support the student actors of Willy Wonka Jr.! 

A very special thank you to all the show day volunteers - we could not have run the shows without you. Thank you for stepping up and volunteering your time. 

Parents, stay tuned for information on an upcoming "friendraiser"/parent get-together.

The Drama Committee is made up of seven working moms who just wanted to see the tradition of a school musical continue at McKinley. Six of us have zero theater experience - but we have a lot of patience, a sense of humor, determination and a love for showing kids the power of theater. Does this sound like you? If so, we'd love to talk - we need parents of younger students to join us to make sure the musical can continue. Email us at mckinleydramaclub370@gmail.com to see how you may be able to help. 

THANK YOU! to everyone who has helped clean up the garden recently!! It is in much better shape thanks to our volunteer and student helpers! Come check out this special McKinley space during the Spring Fair on Friday night!

Recess visits will continue each Wednesday until the end of the school year! Many of our students enjoy these visits, made possible only with volunteer help. Please consider signing up if you are able! Volunteer sign up pages are linked below:

May recess visits (5/6, 5/13, 5/20, 5/27)

June recess visits (6/3, 6/10)

FUNDRAISING FOR NEW TABLES AND BENCHES: The current wooden tables and benches in the garden need to be replaced. We are working hard to reach our fundraising goal of $4,000, the cost to purchase 3 new 8' recycled plastic tables.
