ANGEL TREE SHOPPING
 
 

 

McKinley Sixth Graders, chaperoned by McKinley sixth grade teachers, McKinley staff and Plains Commerce Bank employees, made their annual trip to the Watertown Mall to shop for Angel Tree gifts. Instead of buying teacher gifts or holding a classroom gift exchange, sixth graders contribute money to buy gifts for those who may otherwise go without on Christmas.
