McKinney Academy

Specialties

McKinney Academy is not just a place with walls and windows or teachers and books. It is a concept, a vision, a hope for an enriching educational experience. When others tell us we cannot – we know here in McKinney Academy that we CAN. McKinney Academy is not just a ‘private school’-it is a spirit that flows from one child to the next as he or she learns and grows in the way we know they CAN.

McKinney Academy started from a plea from some Jr K parents! In 2001, award-​winning teacher, Mrs. Andrea McKinney created a dynamic JrK program that was unlike any other program offered in the area. Jr-​K students were performing, singing, writing, reading and growing in a way that was fun, yet challenging. At the end of the McKinney Care Academy school year, parents would beg for more as they wanted the «McKinney learning concept» to carry into elementary years. With careful thought and consideration, Mrs. McKinney and a team of dedicated supporters established «McKinney Academy» in 2007.

It is imperative to know where we have been before we can offer where it is we would like to go. McKinney Academy started from a plea from some very satisfied Junior Kindergarten parents. In 2001, award-​winning teacher, Mrs. Andrea McKinney created a dynamic Junior Kindergarten program that was unlike any other program offered in the area. The program, known as «McKinney Care Academy» started with just four students in its first year and grew to 20 (plus a wait list) in years to follow. Jr-​K students were performing, singing, writing, reading and growing in a way that was fun, yet challenging. At the end of the McKinney Care Academy school year, parents would beg for more as they wanted the «McKinney learning concept» to carry into elementary years and beyond. With careful thought and consideration, Mrs. McKinney and a team of dedicated supporters established «McKinney Academy» in Fall 2007. The private school offered grades K-​5, in addition to its original Jr-​K program as well.
