Dear Keystone Families and Staff,

Use your voice to make the world a better place.Believe in yourself, be brave when things get tough, and always remember to be kind. You have the power to do amazing things. The future is yours — go make it amazing!
To our families:
Thank you for your constant support and partnership. Your involvement has been a crucial part of our students’ success, and we are so fortunate to have such a strong and caring school community.
To our staff:
Your passion, dedication, and unwavering belief in our students create an environment where every child feels valued and empowered. It is your everyday acts of care and excellence that make Keystone a place where students thrive. I am honored to work alongside each of you.
This year wasn’t just about academics or events — it was about building confidence, creating connections, and celebrating the unique strengths of every learner. Together, we have built a community rooted in respect, inclusivity, and hope.
To our rising sixth graders:
As you move on to middle school, carry your confidence, curiosity, and kindness with you. You are ready for this next adventure, and we can’t wait to see all the great things you will achieve.

Kindergarten
A child is eligible for admission to kindergarten if they have attained the age of five (5) years on or before September 1st. Upon written request of the parent/guardian the board may admit a child for Kindergarten who has not met the age requirement, if that child can demonstrate readiness for entry by the first day of the school term. Readiness for entry will be determined by using a district wide screener that will measure academic levels. Written requests for this screener but be submitted on or before August 1st.
A student who has not met the age requirement and is attending a private kindergarten program (fully accredited or not) will not be admitted to a district kindergarten program unless that child can demonstrate readiness for entry by the first day of the school term. A student who is currently attending a public kindergarten program but does not meet the age requirement may be admitted to kindergarten.
