McKinley Elementary School PTA:
The PTA’s purpose is to make every child’s potential a reality by engaging and empowering families and communities to advocate for all children.
Through McKinley’s PTA, we balance fundraising to help supplement our children’s educational experience with events to build our community. At McKinley, “ALL our children are all OUR children.”
The money raised by the PTA supplements the school site budget so that McKinley can offer arts enrichment, extra staffing (i.e., class-size reduction teacher in the upper grades), staff to provide lunchtime & recess support, school supplies, gardening projects, and a number of school-wide events.
