KES Family Newsletter

Mission: The mission of Kewaskum Elementary School is to develop the whole child by providing an engaging and nurturing environment through high-quality teaching and learning.

Vision: The vision of Kewaskum Elementary School is to guide our students to be respectful, hopeful, compassionate, and responsible individuals who recognize and take ownership in their educational journey.

• Thank you to everyone who donated for the Giving Tree. You were able to help 41 families.
• We do our best to ensure that students' belongings are not lost, but we would appreciate your help. Please take a moment to double-check that all items are clearly labeled with your child's name to make them easier to identify.

• The ABCD calendar, which outlines when students have their specials classes, has been updated. Please visit the Kewaskum Elementary School website to view the latest updates.
• Your child's consistent school attendance is a key factor in their achievement and growth. After winter break, please note that families will receive tardy letters if a student accumulates 10 or more tardies.

We are working on some fun projects for the staff and students at KES. All students will be provided with a FREE KES Spirit t-shirt after Christmas break. We are also working on purchasing a new swing for the playground. Besides these fun projects, we continue to support students and teachers by providing bus funding for field trips and miscellaneous classroom supplies.

We have come a long way since the first day of school. I greatly appreciate your partnership in solidifying this process. Here are a few important updates:

• 3-5 carline and 4K-2 carline can now announce when they have arrived to school. If you need help with this feature, please call the office.
• If you arrive at school at 3:55 or later, students that are still in their classrooms will be sent to the office. At 3:55 please go directly to the office even if you see a staff member outside.
• Car tags should be in all cars. This allows us to verify the person getting in the car with the person who announced.
