From the Principal - Teacher Appreciation Week - May 8 - 12
A teacher is a friend, philosopher, and guide who holds our hand, opens our mind, and touches our heart.
Don't forget to thank a teacher!
Teacher Appreciation Week is May 8-12, 2023. We are saying thank you this week, and throughout the year, to all our extraordinary educators who work tirelessly to help our McKinley students learn, grow, and fulfill their potential.
Teachers, you are valued and honored. We appreciate you!
Happy Retirement - Mrs. Derby and Mrs. Hardie!
