We’ve collected so many generous donations to our food drive this week, and now we need your help to get them where they need to go! Please use the SignUpGenius links below to sign up to help organize and pack donations, as well as to help families pick up donated items.
Food drive items will be available to any McKinley family that would like to take food home for Winter Break! Food bags will be distributed on Monday, December 15 at 2:30 PM – simply come to our front lobby. Any and all families are invited to take as many bags as they would like on this day. We’ll also have food bags available for Discovery Link (DL) families when they pick up their students from DL.
Special this year, McT is partnering with Second Star to the Right and other Pearl Street businesses for a toy drive! Toys will be available for pick up with food and other items.
Connect your King Soopers account to our McKinley-Thatcher Parent-Teacher Association (PTA) to help raise money for our school! Once you link your card, all you have to do is shop at King Soopers and swipe your Shopper’s Card (or just check out if you are shopping online) to have a percentage of your spending donated back to our PTA, at no added cost to you.
For instructions on how to link your account for donations, see our flyer here or in your child’s December 12 Friday Folder.
Our Parent-Teacher Association Yearbook Committee would love pictures you’ve taken at school events and happenings, including things like specials, library time, staff appreciation, snow days, field trips, PE Nights, Discovery Link, Movie Night, Glow Dance, International Night, and more!
To share photos, visit this link or scan the QR code on the flyer in your child’s December 12 Friday Folder.
Please let us know how we are doing! Send us a shoutout, an idea you have to help us get better, or a concern that you would like addressed. Responses can be submitted using this Google form. Thank you!
