Fall Clubs Start This Week
Clubs begin this week! As a reminder, all CampFire students who are participating in clubs will go to their CampFire classrooms after their clubs end.
Students being picked up at 5 pm will be picked up at the green benches. Please park and walk to the green benches to pick up your child from their club sponsor.
If you have not yet paid the club fee, please do so today by logging into your Parent Portal, clicking Fees, then adding the club fee to your cart and checking out. Any students with unpaid balances will not be allowed to start clubs.
Reach out to kristi.reneau@cwckansascity.org with any questions.
Curriculum Night Presentation
If you weren't able to attend Curriculum Night in late August, please take a moment to review this slideshow. Reach out to Dr. Miles or Mr. Butler with any questions!
Spirit Wear Bundle Update
Spirit wear shirts and hoodies are currently being printed by our friends at Gladhand Studio in the West Bottoms! Unfortunately there was a slight delay, but we expect they will be sent home with students by the end of the month. Thank you for your patience!
Vision Screenings - September 17th & 19th
We are excited to collaborate with KidSight’s vision screening program to provide free screenings for all of our Broadway K-8 campus students. Grades Kindergarten through 5th grade will be screened on Tuesday, September 17th and middle school grades will be screened on Thursday, September 19th. Each screening only lasts about 30 seconds and all participating students will receive a detailed letter explaining the results and any recommended next steps with available resources. We will be sending more information home with your student this week. Please check their folders and backpacks. If you do not want your student to be screened, please sign and return the KidSight letter to opt out or contact Johanna Chambers, Director of Student Support, at johanna.chambers@cwckansascity.org. All students will be screened except those whose families have declined.
Ice Cream Social - Thursday, September 19th
Get ready for a sweet and fun-filled evening! All PreK through 8th grade families are invited to join us for our upcoming Ice Cream Social on Thursday, September 19th from 6-7:30 pm on the school playground. We'll kick off with a brief meeting for caregivers to discuss upcoming school events and important updates. After that, it’s time for the real treat: enjoy a variety of delicious ice cream flavors while the kids have a blast on the playground!
To make this event even more special, we’re asking families to sign up for item donations. Check out our signup sheet here to see how you can contribute. Items can be dropped off at school the week of September 16th - or bring them directly to the event if you're able to arrive at 6 pm!
Don’t miss out on this delightful community event—mark your calendars and come ready for a scoop of fun!
