WALES AND EXPLORE FAMILY DIRECTORIES
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.
