A word from your principal
Krueger families
Thank you for all of your toy donations. Our student council worked hard to create s' mores bags for each student who donated a toy.
This week, Krueger PTA will deliver the donations to Rhodes Elementary, our sister school. The toys will be provided to less fortunate families. We appreciate your support of this effort. It is essential for our students to see how giving to others is worthwhile and rewarding.
The Krueger recorder players and first-grade carolers did a fantastic job showing off their musical talents at our Literacy Night this past Thursday. Thank you for attending this tremendous evening and supporting your child's literacy learning. We hope you enjoyed it as much as we did.
As a reminder, we will start our Winter Break on December 23rd and continue until January 6th. Students will return on Tuesday, January 7th.
Yours in Education
Mrs. Velasquez

Reminders
- School Hours: 7:45 am -3:00 pm. If students arrive after 7:45 a.m., they will be considered tardy.
- Make sure your child's teacher knows how your child will go home each day.
- If you change your child's way home for the school day, please call the school by 2 p.m., ensuring ample time for the office staff to notify your child's teacher.
- If you need to change your child's way home permanently or for the day, either send an email or note to your child's teacher. We are not able to change the way home if the change comes from the student.
- If your child rides a bike to and from school, remind them to leave their bike inside the gated area at the side of the school.
