SAVE THE DATE - APRIL 2 - MCKINLEY STEAM EXPO AND VARIETY SHOW
Many talented students have auditioned and been accepted into the Variety Show portion. Chamber Orchestra, Jazz Band, Classic Edition, and selected ensembles will also perform. Projects from classrooms throughout the building will be on display, as well as the ever-popular (and profitable!) Silent Auction. Proceeds from this event will benefit Performing Arts groups and special STEAM projects.
