Holiday Cheer

Happy Holidays, Parents!

We know that so much about this school year looks different, but we're so excited that our school will be participating in an online Penguin Patch® Holiday Shop to spread holiday cheer!

Penguin Patch® Holiday Shop is a fun way for students to shop for family members and experience the spirit of giving while learning to earn, budget, and save! Our online shop will be open 11/11 and end 11/23. You can view this step-by-step instructional video here.

To log in to our school's secure shopping platform, please use this link:
shop.penguinpatch.com.

Your student will have over 100 delightful gifts to choose from, all ranging in price from $0.50 to $12. This is an amazing opportunity to empower your student to choose, purchase, and give gifts to their loved ones! Remember, a portion of every dollar spent goes back to our school, so when your child shops the school also receives funds!

Help Families in Need This Holiday Season!

For the past few years, the McKinley community has donated gifts to families affected by cancer through the Breathing Room Foundation. Last year, we collected over 200 gifts! Due to the current situation, we will not be collecting physical gifts at school but instead will support the Breathing Room in different ways. Please see the flyer on ways to support this wonderful organization this holiday season. There are links to an Amazon Wish list and their address if your family would like to donate gift cards or gifts directly to the foundation. Their office is located right in Elkins Park. Please contact Mrs. Schenk at BarbaraSchenk@abington.k12.pa.us with any questions.
