The KES Press - October 16, 2026

Dear KES families,

What a week at KES! We managed to pack a whole lot of fun and activity into just four days! From Picture Day and an evacuation drill to a KEPTA meeting and a Second Grade field trip, there was certainly no shortage of things happening around our school. It has been wonderful to see our students engaged in so many different learning activities and to feel the energy and excitement throughout the building.

I also want to take a moment to recognize our incredible KES staff and the hard work they put in each day, both in and out of the classroom. During our professional development day on October 9, staff spent valuable time collaborating, reflecting on their practices, and working together to strengthen the learning experiences and support we provide for our students. I appreciate their willingness to learn, grow, and continually look for ways to make KES the best it can be. Their dedication, flexibility, and care for our students and school community do not go unnoticed!

As we move further into October, I continue to enjoy getting to know our students, staff, and families and learning more about what makes KES such a wonderful community. Each week brings a better understanding of all the great things happening in our school. I look forward to continuing building relationships and finding ways to make each day positive and meaningful for our students.Thank you for your patience, partnership, and support as we continue to learn and grow together.

I hope everyone has a wonderful weekend, and I look forward to another great week ahead at KES!

Have a happy weekend!

Dr. Christina Boursaw
