McKinley Elementary Teacher of the Year is Maggie Sanchez!
Ms. Sanchez is a Kindergarten teacher and loves building the educational foundation of our little learners. Her message to fellow teachers is: "I would say: never underestimate the impact you have. The smallest moments, a kind word, a patient gesture, a spark of encouragement can change a child’s life."
Thank you for your commitment to our young McKinley Cardinals!
