McKinley Elementary School

Home of the Jaguars

McKinley is one of six elementary schools in the East Cluster of Appleton, feeding into James Madison Middle School and East High School.

We believe in a Multi-Level System of Support, where students grow as a whole child (emotionally, physically, and academically). Our staff is dedicated to ensuring a supportive, nurturing environment where students are taught to be safe, responsible and respectful.

Academically, students are monitored to ensure individual student growth is attained, providing supports and interventions to reach this goal if necessary. Parent involvement is the number one factor to student success; we continue to encourage and foster communication and involvement, thankful for the wonderful support already in place.

Being a part of children’s lives and the determination to make a difference has been instilled in me from little on. Realizing that it takes a village and working with all those involved to reach the whole child is imperative for student success. I feel fortunate to be part of the McKinley family and community, working together to make a difference!
