Just terrible. The report cards lack any details, and many teachers do not take the time to communicate with parents who want to know what is happening in the classroom. There is little to no organization in the curriculum, and many children with difficulties slip through the cracks. You have to fight just to get any help for your kids if they need extra attention. I have seen children pass third grade without knowing even half of their multiplication tables. The standards at this school are the bare minimum, so it's no wonder they offer to bus kids to schools in Grand Terrace instead (an offer than almost no one takes, which is shocking). If you expect the bare minimum from children, that is what they produce. It is extremely disheartening to watch so much potential go to waste.

I have volunteered for Mckinley and the experienced that I went throught was the best. I started with the k throught the 4th grade and the Teachers give it all they got to help and prepare their sudents for their next grade. I want to let parents know that if you have not volunteered a little of your time to get involved in your childs Education Development you are missing out in a mayor way. What I seen and felt in the classroom I volunteered in left me impressed and proud of the Mckinley Elementery School Teachers and Staff members. and this is to all the parents: These Teachers have Child Developmet and teaching knowledge and one thing that makes Mckinley Teachers special and unique from all Teachers around is that they treat every child Fairly and Equally and diffrently according to the childrens needs. Belive me they are all a hand full but there is nothing these teachers cant handle. Parents they take good care of our children and I think us as parents should once in a while let our Teachers know how greatful and thankful you are for the awsome job they for our children. I encourage parents to volunteer best experience you'll ever have your child will thank you in future
