HOW WE RAISE MONEY

The McKenny PTO is a group of dedicated parents and teachers who work together to raise money and support our school. Each year, we sponsor a variety of fundraisers, including a Read-A-Thon, Fun Run, and this year a BINGO night. We also participate in cash back programs like Box Tops for Education and retail store rewards programs.

In the 2020-21 school year, we faced many challenges, but we were still able to achieve some amazing things. We donated over $1000 to buy new books for the school library, gave each classroom teacher $100 for classroom expenses, and supported families during this difficult time through our Sunshine Fund.

We're so excited for the 2023-2024 school year, and we can't wait to see what we can accomplish together! Here are just a few of the many ways the McKenny PTO has contributed to our school over the years:

  • We've funded new playground equipment, technology, and classroom supplies.

  • We've supported teacher professional development and student enrichment programs.

  • We've provided financial assistance to families in need.

  • We've helped to create a strong sense of community at our school.

We're so grateful for the support of our parents, teachers, and community members. Together, we can make a difference in the lives of our students!
