VARIETY SHOW NEWS
Ready for a great night of entertainment and fun? Please join us at the McKinley annual “Little Bit of Somethin‘ Community Variety Show” on March 7. This show is a great way for our kids to showcase their many talents and for all families to show their support of our school. We will have many performances, a bake sale, dinner and silent auction. New this year: silent auction items like four front row seats to the 8th grade graduation, a Lip Sync competition between the staff at McKinley, and raffle prizes that can be won by kids using their Bear Paws! Want to give a special SHOUT OUT to your favorite performer? Please read the SHOUT OUT information below ( due back by Feb 17th to get in the program). Want to help with this event? Please see the links for the Variety Show Bake Sale and Variety Show Volunteer Sign Up. We would really appreciate your help in making this a night to remember for our kids!
