- My two children are new to McDonald Elementary. We are three months into the school year, and they absolutely love it!! Everyone I have spoken to is very friendly and helpful. The pricipal Mrs. Daniels is on top of things. She knows all of her students, and shows much concern and love. My daughter has been on four or five field trips already. My children are actually excited to go to school. They have club days, the last Friday of every month. They also have many other extracurricular activities for the children. This school is very hands on; they really get everyone involved.
