Dear Amazing Elementary Parents,

We hope this newsletter finds you and your family well! At Kohrville, we're always striving to create a nurturing and enriching learning environment for our students. But we know that our greatest strength comes from the partnership between school and home.

Why Your Support Matters More Than Ever

Just like superheroes need their trusty sidekicks, our students thrive when they have a strong support system at home. Your involvement makes a HUGE difference!

Here's how:

* Reinforcing Learning: When you show interest in what your child is learning, it reinforces the importance of education. Asking about their day, reviewing homework, and reading together makes a powerful impact.

* Building Confidence: Your encouragement and belief in your child's abilities can boost their confidence and motivation. A simple "I'm proud of you" goes a long way!

* Creating a Strong Community: When parents are involved, it strengthens our school community. We all benefit from a collaborative and supportive environment.

* Addressing Challenges: Early intervention is key. If you notice any struggles your child is facing, communicating with their teacher allows us to work together to find solutions.

How You Can Be a Superhero at Home and School:

* Read Together Daily: Even 15 minutes of reading together can expand your child's vocabulary and ignite their imagination.

* Ask Open-Ended Questions: Instead of asking "How was your day?" try asking "What was the most interesting thing you learned today?" or "What made you smile today?"

* Check Backpacks and Homework Folders: Stay informed about assignments and upcoming events.

* Attend School Events: Participate in parent-teacher conferences, school assemblies, and family nights.

* Volunteer Your Time: Whether it's helping in the classroom, assisting with school events, or sharing your expertise, your time is invaluable.

* Communicate with Teachers: Don't hesitate to reach out to your child's teacher with any questions or concerns.

* Support Positive Behavior: Reinforce the school's positive behavior expectations at home.

Let's Work Together!

We believe that every child has the potential to achieve great things. With your support, we can create a truly exceptional learning experience for our students.

Thank you for being a vital part of our school community!

Sincerely,

Karen Wilfong

School Counselor

Hello, Coyote Families!

If you are not aware, we have a Kohrville Facebook page. We share pictures and upcoming events here. Be sure you are following https://www.facebook.com/KohrvilleKISD for photos and information!

We will celebrate Read Across America all week with dress up days! We encourage everyone to participate with the special days by also reading a great book! Please share the pictures of your students and what book you’re reading with Mrs. Botello at gbotello1@kleinisd.net. By sending your pictures and books, you give permission for her to share them on our Kohrville Facebook page throughout the month of March.

Klein ISD is committed to the safety and security of all students, staff, and visitors. A comprehensive Emergency Operations Plan (EOP) has been developed to address the four phases of emergency management: prevention, preparedness, response, and recovery.

Various drills such as fire drills, severe weather drills, and intruder drills are examples of measures taken by campuses to prepare students for an emergency. These drills will all be practiced during the first 10 days of school.

Additionally, Klein ISD maintains its own police department and the district cooperates with local and regional emergency agencies to address issues related to incident management.

More information regarding Klein ISD Safety can be found here.

Klein ISD has a new Meal Account system.

In order to ensure student safety for every student, please be aware of the following safety protocol that will be strictly enforced.

Please send a note with your child if they are having a planned early dismissal.

Your child will bring this note to the front office.

When you arrive, please ring the doorbell, show your driver’s license, and tell us the student’s name that you are picking up.

We will then admit you to the front office where we will need to see your license to verify that you are on the student’s pickup list.

Once verified we will have you sign them out, and we will call the student to the front office.

We are not able to process early dismissals after 2:45.

The school district does not have the obligation to contact the managing conservator when the possessory conservator requests permission to review the child’s records and/or consult with the teacher.

Any conflict between two parents should be handled outside the school.

The school district should be advised of any limitations of contact that may be established in the divorce decree; i.e., a visit with the child exclusive of a review of the records, etc.

Please assist us in the handling of custody related issues. It is the responsibility of the parents to provide the campus registrar a certified copy of the court order affecting any other person’s right to their children.

Should you have any questions please call Ms. Kia Bowie at 832-484-7200.

All medication whether prescription or over the counter must be delivered to the clinic by a parent or guardian. Please contact the nurse’s office to schedule an appointment to drop off medicine. Prescription medications must be in the original container with prescription label. Most pharmacies will provide you with an extra bottle when you fill prescriptions if you ask them. Over the counter medications must have a dosage for the child by age or weight and can only be given for 2 weeks without a doctor’s note. Unused medication cannot be sent with the student. If the parent or guardian cannot pick up medication you may make arrangements with the nurse for another adult to pick up medication. No vitamins, health food, or herbal preparations may be given.

• In the event a student is absent from school for any reason, it is required that their parents log in to their child’s Skyward account to report the absence.
• Or on their return to school they can bring a written excuse signed by the parent/guardian or a medical note.
• In order for the absence to be considered an excused absence, the note must be presented within five school days after the absence.
• We will be strictly adhering to all Texas state compulsory attendance laws.
