"This is an excellent school with terrific teachers, principal, and best of all a community that cares. We feel so fortunate to have this school as our public school option in our neighborhood. The PTC rocks and has terrific fundraisers!!!"

"McKinley Elementary is a wonderful school. Parental involvement is greatly encouraged and the teachers make parents feel like partners in their childrens education. When budget cuts are forcing other schools to do away with Art, Music, Spanish, McKinley's PTC and Foundation work hard to keep these important components of our childrens learning intact. We love our school!"

"Great School! We moved out of the area ( 20 minutes away ) 5 or more years ago and I continue to take my kids there. My daughter went to school there from kindergaten to 5th grade. I have a son who is now a 1st grader and I plan to continue take him there unless we move out of state."

"We love McKinley! The principal and teachers are so caring and I believe the best feature of the school is the community/parent support. It really is a neighborhood school where everyone cares about the students. The diverse student population is also a plus!"

"Although it is facing budget cuts like the rest of the state, McKinley's ties to the community is its saving grace. The active and friendly PTC organizes inventive fundraisers to pay for the arts (ceramics!), music and Spanish class we otherwise couldn't afford. A school garden and afterschool clubs are open to the students, and the IB program keeps the curriculum from being test-based and keeps the teaching fresh. The dedicated principal seems to know the name of every kid and the teachers I've encountered are experienced and caring. Best of all, the kids seem happy here."
