Programs

We believe a student’s life success is dependent upon more than just their grades. We believe to become truly “educated,” students must recognize and develop their intellect, their talents, and their aspirations. Not only do we offer art, music, band, physical education, STEM, and library education, but we also advocate for developing the whole person through various programs and activities available throughout our community. Here, you’ll learn more about the programs your child will participate in at Dassa McKinney Elementary School.
