Recently I was interviewed by our Superintendent for a video about community support of schools. His final question to me was, "What is next for McKinney?" My answer was that I want to continue connecting our students to our community. The support we have received from our community has been very generous. We have received substantial donations from First Tech Credit Union and the Hillsboro Schools Foundation that have made it possible to bring STEM curriculum into our school. Volunteers from Qorvo engage our students in learning both in the classroom and in our after school program. There is a banner that hangs in the front of the school that displays the names of the many organizations that support our school. We could not offer so many opportunities to our students without the support of our community. I want to continue to grow these relationships so that our students will thrive.
