News from the Admin Team

Knights Family,

We hope that you have had a great week! There has been a lot of learning and fun at KES this week. Thank you to all of our families that were able to make it to Willie's for our Spirit Night on Thursday. It was a great turnout and a lot of fun for our kids.

We are working on creating a positive campus culture and your input is needed and valued. Please take a few minutes to complete the form below so that we can get as much feedback and input as possible. This was the same link that was provided at Open House but the link was not working. Thank you in advance for helping us with this

We love our Knight families,

Jennifer Escamilla, Principal and Chelsea Allison, Assistant Principal

Attendance

Knoteworthy Knight

Congrats to our Knoteworthy Knights this week!! We are so excited to honor students each week and see them taking pictures with their signs back at home! Keep up the good work, Knights!

Knights in Action

Look at these amazing Knights in Action helping with trash duty during lunch periods. Students work hard to be chosen to be a helper each day and we love seeing that even our Kindergarten kids rise to the occasion!

Lunch Visitors

Our campus is now open for lunch visitors to begin joining their student at lunch. You must check in at the front office and receive a visitor badge before you are permitted access to the cafeteria. Once in the cafeteria, you may sit at the designated parent tables closest to the stage or make your way outside to the outdoor eating area. Your student is the only one permitted to eat with you. Please refrain from inviting other students to join you. Additionally, we ask that you do not stay in the cafeteria after your student's lunch time is over. You will need to make your way back to the front at this time and allow your student to rejoin their class.

Birthday Treats

Birthday treats must be store bought with a nutrition label. This is a BISD procedure that has been in place since 2018. Treats from bakeries must also include nutrition labels.

Please view the BISD Severe Food Allergy Management Plan for more information at https://www.boerneisd.net/Page/8985.

Page 13 states: All foods brought to campus for special occasions such as birthday parties, holiday parties, any special occasion MUST have an FDA approved label with ingredients and allergens legibly listed.

Birthday treats may be dropped off in the front office. Visitors will not go to classrooms. Teachers will celebrate the last 15 minutes of the day, prior to dismissal. Flowers and balloons are not to be sent to school for delivery for any student

Social Media

Please get connected with our Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter and follow along with the amazing events happening on our campus! However, we want to inform you that we do not utilize our social media platforms as a place to answer questions or engage in conversation. We will not respond to messages or comments on these platforms. However, we would love to hear from you and help find the answers to your questions. We just ask that you call your homeroom teacher or the front office with these questions rather than utilizing social media for this.

Share the Wins

At Kendall, we love to celebrate our staff and share the wins each day. Every time we give a staff member a shout out, we link it to one of our core values. If you see your child's teacher or any staff member going above and beyond to live out our core values, please send a shout out via email to Jennifer or Chelsea. We would love to pass the shout outs along!
