"On February 22, 2013, Tori Verber and Mr. Mulvihill from the District Attorney's Office provided our students with invaluable information on implications and preventative measures on cyber bullying."  

 "The Record partners up with McKinley students for our Rotary Read-In on February 28, 2013."  

Last October, the Stockton Fire Department teamed up with the Record Newspaper and had a contest calling for students to create Safety Slogans. The slogans would be used at  the various firehouses and the Sparky Signs that are outside of the Firehouse.  Several students from McKinley entered the city wide contest and there were quite a few winners from our school!

And the winners of the contest from McKinley Elementary School were:

Turner Tolentino

Veronica Santos

Eduardo Salazar

Luis Pech

Nicol Maltos

Alexandria Maxwell

Ruby Carrillo

Mayor Ann Johnson presented these students their awards in December at the Stockton City Hall.

Congratulations to all of our participating students !

On Friday, November 9th the students celebrated Veterans Day by paying tribute to some of our Veterans.  The pledge was led by Sargent Leon Phifer who was in uniform for the event.  We had guest veterans come, Leon Phifer, Jonathan and Letica Samson. We also honored one of our own, Ms. Stratton our 3rd grade teacher. We know that many of our parents have served in the military and we would like to give a very special thanks to all of those who have served our country.  Your service does not go unnoticed. We are very grateful for your sacrifices.  Thank you and Happy Veteran's Day from McKinley Staff and Students.

"The Stockton Police Officers' Association On Wednesday, October 3, 2012, donated supplies to teachers at McKinley Elementary School.  The police union, which adopted the school three years ago, asked the teachers what they needed.  The officers raised $3,000 at an annual golf tournament and from other sources, which they used to buy everything from crayons, pencils, paper, and tissue." (The Record).  McKinley teachers are extremely grateful and fortunate that such a prestigious and invaluable public agency adopted our school. 

On behalf of McKinley Eagles and McKinley teachers, Thank you! 

Mrs. Ambriz.  

McKinley's Back to School Night on August 28, 2012 was a huge success!

       Approximately 330 parents came to school to meet their children's teachers, learn about Title 1 services and expectations, learn about grade level standards, teachers' procedures, and routines; and most importantly to make a connection with the teacher and the school environment.  The camaraderie between families was impressive as many of them had Dominoes pizza at the picnic tables after visiting their perspective classrooms.  Students proudly and walked their parents to their classrooms to meet their teachers and see their classroom.  Teachers demonstrated their professionalism and their eagerness to provide parents with the upmost detailed presentation about the expectations for this coming school year.  Parents, thank you for making your children's education a priority.  Together we will pave the way to success on their journey to college.

"McKinley School was fortunate to be sponsored by the Prudential California Realty office located at 3202 W. March Lane, Suite D. 

Mr. Glenn M. Race and Nuncita Cherry in conjunction with other office staff joint forces and granted a wish list for many of McKinley's teachers.  Prudential California Realty staff took on this endeavor because they wanted to give back to our community in a manner which would impact children.  By helping teachers, they are helping children learn. 

Thank you Prudential Realty.  McKinley teachers are extremely grateful!"

“On 8/14/12 the San Joaquin County Probations Officers Association delivered hundreds of backpacks to all kindergarten and first grade students at McKinley School.  Their generosity and dedication to the students in our community is admirable and tremendously appreciated.  This is a great example of how stakeholders in our community make a positive impact on our students as they motivate them to do well in school.  The children were thrilled, excited, and grateful as they looked through their backpacks showing off their supplies.  Thank you! 

Mrs. Ambriz,

Principal”
