Our
school was constructed in 1969 and was named after Superintendent A.B. McDonald. Our building has 20 classrooms, a full size gymnasium, beautiful library, music room,
updated computer lab, and special education pods. We are very proud of our beautiful facility and the
surrounding playground.
McDonald School has approximately 450 students in grades K-6 and
a developmental preschool. Our class sizes range from 19 to 26
students. The K+ enrichment program serving 22 children, is
offered each afternoon for kindergarten students. McDonald's
teachers and staff are all certified in their fields, many of them
holding advanced degrees.
We boast a state-recognized physical
education/movement program, have a full time music teacher, a full time
library assistant and a technology teacher. McDonald School is very proud
of the service it provides for students with special needs, as well as those who qualify for gifted and talented programs.
We have a counselor and a school psychologist who are always available for children and families.
Our school follows all curriculum guidelines as
mandated by the state of Idaho. In addition to the required
curriculum, we participate in DARE education and have implemented an outstanding
anti-violence curriculum entitled Second Step.
McDonald
School has a breakfast and lunch program available to all students.
Adventure Club is available to children who need care after school. McDonald students are bused with
others in our district to after school band and orchestra programs.
We are all very proud of the well rounded
educational program we provide! Parental involvement is encouraged
and greatly contributes to our success. Our Parent Teacher
Organization meets monthly and welcomes new members. McDonald families agree that our school is a wonderful place to be!
