Burl McKinney Stadium Rededication Ceremony

On Friday, September 6th, Van Vleck ISD will proudly rededicate Burl McKinney Stadium after recent renovations and improvements.

Burl, and his wife Mary Ann came to Van Vleck in 1962. Coach McKinney taught physical education and coached. He started the P.E. program at the Van Vleck Elementary School. He was assistant athletic director until he became the athletic director in 1964, a position he held until 1972. In 1972, Mr. McKinney was named principal of Van Vleck Elementary School, a position he held until his death in 1987. In 1988, the football stadium at Van Vleck was rededicated in his honor.

Please join us at 7 pm on September 6th, right before our Van Vleck Leopards take on Houston Wheatley, to help us rededicate our stadium - Burl McKinney Stadium! We hope some of Mr. McKinney's former students, coaches, players, family and friends will join us in this celebration.
