McPolin's diversity is a superpower!
WHY DONATE?
Turn one day of generosity into a lifetime of learning to understand, unity over differences, and growth over discrimination - all to equip our students to become thoughtful, valuable global citizens.
The now-annual McPolin Multicultural Festival is a highlight for students and parents alike! Our kids learn and perform traditional dances with props and costumes, and everyone gets to savor delicious foods that showcase various cultures.
Large-scale events that dazzle and spark joy are a wonderfully visual way to celebrate our diverse heritage. Our expert educators also strive to provide consistent, meaningful, daily learning opportunities, which add up over time.
Through Dia de Los Muertos activities, Mrs. Dufner's new "We All Belong at McPolin" campaign, Café con Amigos, the Multicultural Festival, and more, McPolin works relentlessly to connect our students to each other and the community.
McPolin has long honored and celebrated our community's vibrant blend of diverse backgrounds, cultures, experiences, and heritage. Your donations to Multicultural McPolin will help provide these opportunities for years to come.

โค๏ธ We All Belong at McPolin ๐ซ
MPES educators continue to promote "We All Belong at McPolin" at school in many ways; through photos, flyers, conversations, and more.
At the beginning of the school year, I met with each grade level to discuss our many differences - and many similarities, too. We also went over how to ensure everyone can feel they belong at McPolin.
A feeling of belonging at school can help students:
- stay energized & engaged in learning
- connect school lessons to their lives
- build strong, healthy relationships with peers & teachers
- create a sense of community
- and more!
New "We All Belong" designs are now in our spirit wear shop. If you are interested in buying any of the items, I encourage you to wear them whenever you visit or volunteer at McPolin. This is another way to help amplify the importance of creating a school environment in which we all belong.
