The PTO is Officially a Non-Profit Organization!

At the end of the last school year, the PTO became a non-profit organization. This means that you can now write off your PTO membership! We are also tax exempt so eventually purchasing things from our store will be less expensive and we will see a cost savings when making purchases for events.

PTO Website

The PTO website has been updated with the new board members, calendar events  and a new feature: online payment of PTO dues! Be sure to check in regularly for updates. Later this year, we hope to make McKinley gear available in our online store as well.

Become a PTO Member

Paying your membership dues will help us make this year more fun during our virtual situation. Fundraising in the foreseeable future will be difficult so PTO membership dues will be our main source of fundraising. Funds collected through membership and fundraising events goes directly toward:

  • supporting our teachers

  • student events

  • various school clubs

Dues are being collected online and start at $10. If you have the ability, please consider paying more to help us maintain our typical membership contributions. Remember, dues are now tax deductible and they truly help the PTO plan activities for students and teachers!

McKinley Directory

Interested in connecting with classmates and their families? Classroom rosters are now available in the Directory, Membership Toolkit! If you don't have an account or need to update your account, directions are on our website at https://www.mckinleypto.org/directory-howto.

NEW! PTO Facebook Group

The PTO is gearing up for a different school year ahead and we have been busy working on different ways to support the parents, teachers and students as we all navigate this new way of schooling. The PTO has created a Facebook group to interact with families (look for McKinley Elementary School PTO) and to provide fun activities for students, parents and teachers. This will also be a hub to stay up to date on school information. Please be sure to read and adhere to the page rules. No talk of politics or beliefs. This page is for MCKINLEY FAMILIES to have fun! Anyone not in compliance will be removed from the group.

Weekly Updates

Typically, the PTO sends a weekly update. Since we're not sure what events and activities will look like in the coming months, we may not be reaching out every week. We will, however, send emails when there are updates!

If you have any questions, thoughts or ideas, do not hesitate to reach out to us directly at mckinleypto@gmail.com.
