Welcome to Mrs. McKinnon's Previous Years' Achievements!
We participated in so many great events and learning opportunities in past years. We've had several character building days like We Day, Peace Day (One day one dance), and Wear Pink Day. We have painted a full-wall mural of the seven grandfather teachings in the gym and created flat selves to send to England to visit Jeremy Gilley in support of the global cease-fire of 2012. We have even published several books and met some famous people such as Mitch Dorge of the Crash Test Dummies ~Have a look!
