Welcome to warrior Country

Welcome to the Dassa McKinney Elementary School website. Learning and fun go hand in hand in our kindergarten through sixth grade classrooms. We are a tight-knit community located West Sunbury, Pennsylvania. Our school is made up of hard working, hard playing, success-oriented individuals who work together to bring about the academic and personal success of every student in our care. Please visit the pages, including Principals’ Corner, on this website to learn more about us.
