NOTE FROM MR. MARTINEZ
Hello McKinley Families, I hope this message finds you safe and well. At this time, we are still experiencing difficulties accessing Infinite Campus and WiFi services both from the building and from our homes. We appreciate your patience and understanding during this difficult time.
Building Closed
The district is currently completing the assessment of damage from the storm to every building. During this assessment, McKinley will remain closed. Please do not attempt to clean up grounds or help move debris. We appreciate the assistance and support, but the work has to be completed by trained professionals due to insurance.
Family Needs
Does your family have any specific needs? Please let us know how we can support you! Email jmartinez@crschools.us or jhanna@crschools.us with any requests. We are currently building up an inventory of food, clothing, and hygiene products for both short and long-term needs.
Storm Response Resources
If you are in need of support and/or assistance, the Linn Area Partners Active in Disaster webpage is a great resource for finding what you need.
Return to Learn Plan
The district is currently revisiting the Return to Learn Plan by looking at family choices and necessary staffing for both in-person and remote learning. As soon as we have more information, and a timeline for returning to school, I will pass that along to you.
Wellington Heights Resource Center
The Resource Center will be open Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday this week from 10am-2pm. They will be able to accept donations and share supplies during those times. The Resource Center is located at 392 15th Street SE.
