HELLO, NEIGHBOR

One small school.
So many ways to shine.

We’re parents, teachers, alumni, and neighbors who believe in what a great public school can do. Since 1913, McGilvra has been a special part of Madison Park. Our PTA helps keep it that way.

From extra support in the classroom to that first brushstroke in art, we make room for every child’s curiosity—and for every family to feel at home.

What we make possible
