McKinley Elementary School's Ambassadors were excited to kick off a great new learning opportunity this week by meeting with former School Director, Mr. Jeff Bates, for the first of three civics-focused sessions. During this first meeting, students explored the organization of our local government from right here in Abington, up to our state-level elected officials. The Ambassadors asked thoughtful questions to build a deeper understanding of how decisions are made within communities. #ASDProud
