Calling All McKinley Business Owners & Community Partners

McKinley Jog-a-Thon is coming up Thursday, Oct. 22, and we are looking for corporate sponsors to help make our first major fundraiser of the year a success.

Sponsors can receive recognition on more than 600 student and staff T-shirts, banners displayed around campus, and McKinley PTC’s website and Facebook page.
