Happy New Year!

Month of January Snowman

We hope everyone had a fun filled and restful winter break.  There are a few events in January that you should note --- most of all that the 2nd quarter ends this week.   This marks the halfway point of 4th grade and grade cards will be coming home next week.   Also, students will be making the "big switch" between science and social studies.    

January Happenings:

January 8 - End of the 2nd Quarter
January 11 - Teacher Workday - NO SCHOOL FOR STUDENTS
January 19 - Martin Luther King Jr. Day - NO SCHOOL

Weather Reminders

We are entering the time in the school year where we can anticipate inclement weather. If the Kings School District is on a two-hour delay due to inclement weather, the schedule for the school day (Monday-Friday) is 10:40 AM-3:20 PM for grades K-4There will be no breakfast served on days when there is a two-hour delay. We will follow our normal lunch schedule, which starts at 11:00 AM. 

There will be NO Early Release if a two-hour delay occurs on a Wednesday

In the event that school is dismissed early because of changing weather conditions, it would be good for parents to make arrangements for their children ahead of time as students will follow their normal dismissal routine for the day; whether that is riding the bus home or being picked-up by their parents. 

Kings Kids after-school program will not be open if school is dismissed early. Parents who utilize Kings Kids will be instructed to come to school to pick up their child. When school is closed or released early due to inclement weather, all evening school activities are cancelled. 

Outdoor Recess

Please make sure that your child dresses for the weather daily -- with coats, hats, gloves, etc., as we will be having the students play outside for recess as long as the temperature is above 32 degrees.
