There are some dates coming up at the Middle School to help with the 5th grade transition into the Middle School. Read all about them here.
T-shirt sizes are needed! Please make sure your 5th grader knows what their t-shirt size is. The PTO provides t-shirts for all of our outgoing 5th graders.
DUE BY MARCH 14th! Baby pictures needed! You can email them to Mrs. Schultz at schultzr@kmsd.edu OR upload them directly to the treering website. Here are the directions.

In accordance with our student handbook, families MUST OPT IN to school directories. If you would like your student's info to be available to other students for play dates, birthday invitations, etc, you must fill out the form below. Please fill out one form per child.
If you would like access to the collected information, you must email your classroom teacher or Mrs. Schultz at schultzr@kmsd.edu and ask for the directory, as it cannot be published on any public sites. The spreadsheet you will receive is a live document and will be updated as parents fill out the form.
Once again, you MUST fill out this form for Wales or this form for Explore in order to be included in the directory.
After it is completed, email Mrs. Schultz or your classroom teacher to ask for a copy of the directory.
Thank you for your understanding in helping to keep our families' information as secure as possible.
