📸 Spring Picture Day is Almost Here! 🌷🪻🌷🪻

Spring Picture Day is coming up on Thursday, March 12th!

If you would like your child to have their picture taken, please make sure to:

• Sign them up using the link that was sent out via email a couple of weeks ago, or
• Notify your child’s teacher so they can be added to the picture list.

Only students who are signed up or whose teacher has been notified will have their photo taken.

We can’t wait to see all those Spring smiles! 🌞📷

McKinley celebrated Multicultural Day by stamping passports 🗺️ and traveling around the 🌎 ! Students had the opportunity to try different foods from over 20 countries, hear their music, see traditional clothes, and every grade did a music/dance performance from a different country.
Thank you so much to the teachers and staff who put this event in every year. A lot of extra time and energy goes into planning a day like this and we appreciate you all for putting it on!

There’s nothing like the "New Shirt" feeling! 🚀Fresh shirts, big smiles, and a whole lot of school spirit!

Our PTA was honored to provide these shirts for our Kindergarten classes this year. Seeing them wear their school pride for the first time is a highlight for all of us!

WOW. Last night’s Trivia Night was one for the books.

A massive THANK YOU to our volunteers, sponsors, silent auction donors, and everyone who showed up and showed out. And a social shout out to Kirby Winn for a fantastic hob at MC! Because of you, we didn’t just fund 100% of the cost and training for our new therapy dog (arriving early Fall 2026 🐾)… we also raised the most money in Trivia Night recent history for our school.

To our incredible McKinley faculty and staff, and our wildly supportive, all-in parent community: this is what happens when a school shows up together. You are the heartbeat of what makes McKinley so special. 💙

💙💛We want to give a quick shout out and Thank You to all our McKinley parents who donated blood at our blood drive on January 26th & those who donated at the ImpactLife Donor Centers. 🩸Your donations went on to aid in the care of up to 115 patients in our community! 🅰️🅱️🅾️🆎
These donations helped McKinley earn the Lifesavings Grant, which be put towards the purchase of new books for our library!
We have a really special community here at McKinley and this is just one of the many ways we see you show up and give back. Thank you!💙💛
