The calendar on the school website is the ultimate resource for all that is going on at McKinley and PACS. You can print or add the feed from this calendar to your personal calendar. Click on each event to get more information.

Check it out here:

Also, people with Gmail can "subscribe" to the calendar - here are instructions:

The McKinley/PACS Calendar includes all school events, including events hosted by the PTA. For families with a Gmail address, you can easily keep track of events by adding the school calendar to your Google calendar as an "other calendar":

• Open your own Google calendar (on your computer, not your phone)
  
• On the left-hand side of the page, under the month calendar and list of My Calendars, you'll see Other Calendars
  
• Just to the right of the words Other Calendars is a small downward arrow that brings up a drop-down menu -- click on that and choose "add a friend's calendar"
  
• Into that box, type or paste mckinleyschoolcalendar@gmail.com and hit enter
  
• That's it! You should now be able to see McKinley/PACS events -- both those organized by the school, and those hosted by the PTA -- listed on your calendar.

WE NEED YOUR HELP! We need 20 people or more willing to donate their time. If we do not have the volunteers we cannot raise the money that pays for school supplies, bilingual instructional assistants, field trips, classroom funds, curriculum support, PE for TK-6, AND SO MUCH MORE!

Please email Nina Jarnum (ninajarnumyoga@gmail.com) or Renee Mcardle (renee_mcardle@att.net) with your preferred area of support and we will reach out.

Planning Meetings are ongoing every other Wednesday at 7:30pm via Zoom. The next meeting is March 1st.
