McKinley Elementary School

Feels like a private school. Small and efficient. My son is now in 1st grade and we have absolutely adored our teachers so far. It seems everyone is happy with their teachers. My son loves going to school. He says he wishes there were more school days and misses it on the weekends. We feel very lucky.

The parent involvement is great and keeps getting better each year. There is tremendous momentum from the community - computer labs, green gardening, field trips, onsite tutoring, classroom support, active PTA, after school enrichment and so much more.

The parent involvement at McKinley is second to none. As a new parent, I was so impressed at the level of parent involvement and organization of activities at McKinley. The fundraising is incredible and is a testament to the parent's interest and devotion to student learning. Given all the statewide budget cuts, McKinley remains a diamond in the ruff. I am proud to say my daughter attends McKinley and it is a direct result of the principal, the teachers, the staff, the parents and all of the wonderful children.
