Greetings Connect K8 Families,

We hope you've had a great week! We want to acknowledge the hard work everyone (including all of you!) has done to transition to Canvas. We realize that there are some glitches to work out, and we thank you for your patience as we make changes for a smooth transition!

We'd like to spend some time with all of you! We will be hosting Coffee with Kaitlin and Robin on Monday 9/11 and Thursday 9/14 at 9:15am on campus. This is a time to connect and share ideas/ask questions--no agenda! This is your time, and we are happy to spend it with you!

Enjoy the long weekend!

Kaitlin (she/her) and Robin (she/her)

Changes to Pick Up Procedures

If you park your car and walk on to campus for pickup, please plan to walk into campus and retrieve your child from their classroom.

Families who choose to use the carpool line (remember--no parking or exiting vehicles if in the carpool line!) will have students delivered to their car

Students in Core 4/5 (along with any younger siblings) who have been granted Independent Walker permission and have a backpack tag indicating such, will exit independently from the south gate.

Thank you for helping us maintain safety and security during pick up!
