Message from the Principal
Dear Kimball Hill Parents,
I hope everyone has a wonderful and relaxing Spring Break. As a reminder, there is no school next week. We look forward to welcoming back students on Monday, April 1st.
Please help us keep all of our teachers! Register online for next school year if you have not already done so. Lastly, I want to thank everyone for your continued support with helping us reach our goal for the 5E survey. Congratulations to our parent raffle winner, Lauren Brant!
We are all so grateful for this amazing parent community!
Warmly,
Michelle LaCamera

New Family Welcome
As we move closer to the 2024-2025 school year, we’ve had many conversations regarding student transitions to new schools next year. We are excited to offer two New Family Welcome Night opportunities for our elementary and middle school students who will be attending a new school next year.
Please note, each school has an Open House in the spring. Your current school’s open house is a showcase for this school year. We strongly encourage all families to participate in your school’s Open House. Students will have an opportunity to show their family around their school and families will learn more about what happens during the day in their child’s classroom.
The New Family Welcome Nights shared below are additional opportunities for students who will attend a new school in the 2024-2025 school year. These Welcome Nights are not mandatory, but an option for any students who will attend a new school next year.
Elementary New Family Welcome Night - April 17, 2024, from 6-6:45 pm
During this Elementary New Family Welcome Night, new students will hear a welcome from their principal followed by self-guided tours and an opportunity to participate in a scavenger hunt to find specific locations in the building.
Middle School New Family Welcome Night - April 15, 2024
During this Middle School New Family Welcome Night, new students will hear a welcome from their principal followed by self-guided tours and an opportunity to participate in a scavenger hunt to find specific locations in the building. To ensure the buildings are not too crowded, the following schedule outlines when different grade levels should attend.
The middle school principals are creating schedules for their schools based on enrollment and we will share those school schedules with incoming 6th, 7th, and 8th grade families next week.

Registration for 2024-25
Online student registration for the 2024-2025 school year is now open. The year ahead brings many new and exciting initiatives to District 15! One such something new is that this is the first year we will offer FULL-DAY KINDERGARTEN for every student. Additionally, many of our schools are undergoing construction which will be completed for the upcoming school year, AND our 6th graders will join their adolescent peers in our newly restructured middle schools.
The first day of school for the 2024-2025 school year is Thursday, September 5 for grades 1-8 and Friday, September 6 for kindergarten and early childhood students.
Please visit our registration page to begin registering your child(ren) for school. Doing so helps us solidify staffing for our schools, allows your child(ren) to be placed on a class list, and allows your child(ren) to ride a bus to and from school. Registration MUST be completed and student fees must be paid by July 1, 2024. With close to 12,000 students to place in a classroom and on bus routes, we ask that you please do your part and register on or before July 1.
