McKinley is not a great school but an ok school. My child attended three years 3-5 grade and the first chance I had I transferred my child. Teachers are good but programs and holiday plays lack good structure. Ghetto neighborhood ghetto kids. Sorry but true...Sons bike was stolen and bullying. Soccer team is favortism and you have to wait practically two years to get into ASES (after school tutoring care).
