Message from the Principal
We're incredibly grateful to our RM police and fire department for sending such amazing, energetic officers to greet our students! It was an incredible way to start the day, watching our kids' faces light up with excitement as they interacted with law enforcement. We know how busy they are, so it means the world that they take the time to visit our schools and connect with our students. Be sure to check out our FB page for more photos.
Have a restful and enjoyable weekend! We look forward to welcoming our students back on Monday for a special Veterans Day whole school celebration. Together, we will honor the brave men and women who have served our country with courage and sacrifice.
As always, reach out any time with questions, concerns or feedback.
Warmly,
Michelle LaCamera
Kimball Hill Principal

Our PTA Rocks
We are thrilled to announce that our dedicated PTA has once again exceeded expectations! Through a generous grant from Walmart, every classroom will receive two additional games for indoor recess. This thoughtful gesture will undoubtedly enrich our students' indoor recess experience, providing them with engaging activities to enjoy with their peers. We are incredibly grateful to our PTA for their tireless efforts to enhance our school community. We encourage all parents to consider joining this wonderful organization.
