We want to give a huge thank you to the amazing volunteers behind McKinney Area School Retired Teacher's Association annual Book Project! Each year, they collect donations and select an elementary campus to gift every student a brand-new book. This project continues to spread the love of reading and make a meaningful impact on young readers across our district.
Thank you, MASRA volunteers, for your dedication, generosity, and passion for putting books into the hands of every child. You are truly making a difference!

Students shared readings and heartfelt messages of gratitude as we recognized the veterans in our community. It was a meaningful morning filled with pride, respect, and appreciation for those who protect our freedom.
Thank you to all who joined us, and most importantly — thank you, veterans, for your service and sacrifice.

Let’s fill our halls with gratitude and joy this season!
Today, Monday (Nov 3), we are launching our annual Raise Craze PTO fundraiser! It will run from Monday Nov 2 through Friday, Nov 14. Our goal is to raise $5,000. Here are a few of the things we did last year with the funds we raised, and we will do similar things this year:
- Sponsor the 1st grade field trip to the Heard Museum and the Kinder field trip to the Crayola Experience
- Show teachers our appreciation during teacher appreciation week!
- Provide a breakfast for teachers for their first day back at school
- Help pay for school supplies
Today, your child will be sent home with a flier with instructions and a QR code to register your student with Raise Craze. We would LOVE to have every student registered so we can track all of the awesome acts of kindness your kids are doing! There will be numerous opportunities at school and at home to do acts of kindness (like our PTO-sponsored Family Service Night on Nov 4 @ 4:30 at the school). In addition to tracking acts of kindness, you can donate money through the Raise Craze portal. If we receive just a $15 donation per student, we'll meet our fundraising goal!
Also, tomorrow November 4th we will have a family service night. We will create placemats for Meals on Wheels, signing/coloring a thank you poster for our firefighters, and we will paint kindness rocks with kind messages written on them so we can give them to anyone that needs a kind note!
