Principal

Dear McKinley Families,

Welcome to a brand-new school year! I hope this letter finds you rested, recharged, and ready for an exciting year of learning and growth. On behalf of the entire staff at McKinley, I am thrilled to welcome both new and returning students and families to our school community.

The beginning of the year is always filled with energy, anticipation, and possibilities. Our dedicated teachers and staff have been preparing classrooms, planning engaging lessons, and setting goals to ensure that every student feels supported, challenged, and inspired. This year, our focus will continue to be on high quality instruction, a safe and inclusive learning environment and engaging with family to advance student achievement.

Family involvement is a key part of our success. We encourage you to stay connected by joining the PTA, attending family nights, volunteering at events, or simply talking with your child each day about their learning. Together, we can ensure that every child feels safe, valued, and inspired to do their best.

Thank you for entrusting us with your children. I am honored to serve as your principal and look forward to working with each of you to make this year a joyful and successful one. Let’s make 2025–2026 a year of growth, discovery, and community.

Warmly,
Christine Booth
Principal, McKinley School
