Holy Family School provides a safe, loving Christian environment for culturally, economically and ethnically diverse children in McKinney and surrounding communities.
We promote a sense of self-worth, a respect for others and love for learning by using a developmental curriculum designed to allow each child to grow, develop and learn to his/her fullest potential in partnership with parents in the community.
We are excited to see at the start line rain or shine!
