Summer is in full swing in McCall. Vehicles laden with outdoor toys get backed up downtown as they pause to let pedestrians cross highway 55. The momentary inconvenience is a blessing in disguise for most as they get a chance to look around at the dressed up store fronts with Payette Lake and mountains in the background. Some are headed to the water for fishing, skiing or rafting. Others are packed to hike or bike the mountain trails. Many are in town to enjoy golf and the pleasant weather at their summer home. Whatever brings you to McCall, we hope you get a chance to pass by our excellent educational facilities and explore the idea of attending our schools.

If you ask our residents, I believe they will agree that the quality and dedication of our faculty is what sets us apart from other districts. Our students and schools perform at an extremely high level on state tests but that is just one important piece of a quality education. Our staff members work as partners with parents and the community to engage the students the three A’s, “academics, athletics and the arts.” Please visit the McCall-Donnelly High School website and read the student produced newspaper to get a flavor of the opportunities for students. http://www.mdsd.org/Default.aspx?tabid=473

On behalf of the Board of Trustees and the rest of the McCall-Donnelly staff, I would like to thank you for visiting our website. I hope that it has provided helpful information. Have a safe and enjoyable summer. We will see you in the fall.
