McKinley Elementary School opened its 2012 time capsule last week, an event that takes place every 12 years, coinciding with the graduation of the students who originally buried it. Current K-5 students also had the special opportunity to contribute new items to the time capusle, which will be opened in 2036 when the current kindergarteners are high school seniors! #ASDProud
