Congratulations to Dr. McKillip
On Friday March 3rd Dr. McKillip will be celebrating an amazing milestone of being French Creek’s principal for 15 YEARS! We surprised her with an assembly filled with cards and art work, flowers and balloons, videos and stories and a gorgeous plaque to commemorate the day! We were joined by some of Dr. McKillip’s family, friends and colleagues, as well as Dr. Stout and district administrators to watch the students perform a song for her to show their love. It was a great morning of celebrating our amazing principal who gives so much of herself to our children every day! Congratulations Dr. McKillip!
