It’s hard to believe we’re down to the final five weeks of the school year! As we head into our last full month of 2025–2026, there’s a lot to look forward to. Spring brings fresh energy, warmer days, and plenty of exciting opportunities for our KES students and families.

We’re proud of the incredible growth our students have shown this year, and we’re excited to celebrate their accomplishments with a variety of fun end-of-year activities and events. Be sure to read through this month’s KES Family Newsletter to stay informed about upcoming field trips, special events, important dates, and more!

Our upcoming dates section has been refreshed with important updates you won’t want to miss! As we head into a busy and exciting spring, please take a moment to review the latest information and plan ahead.

🚌 Field Trip Dates:
All of our grade-level field trips are now confirmed! If you’re hoping to join your child on a trip, be sure to mark your calendar. Permission slips and additional details will be sent home closer to each date, so thank you in advance for your patience and for keeping an eye out as those approach. Please make sure you have an updated ICHAT completed in the office if you plan to attend!

📝 Spring Testing Dates:
Spring assessments are right around the corner, and our students are ready to shine! We’re proud of the hard work they’ve put in all year and can’t wait to see their growth. Please note the testing dates and help your child come well rested, confident, and ready to do their very best.

We’re excited to invite all KES students and their families to our final Family Engagement Night of the year! Join us on Tuesday, May 19th from 5:00–7:00 PM for a fun-filled evening picnic in the park.

Bring the whole family and enjoy music, yard games, hot dogs, ice cream, and more! It’s a great opportunity to relax, connect, and celebrate the end of a wonderful school year together.

We hope to see you there!

Get ready for one of the most exciting events of the year, Field Day! We’re looking forward to two fun-filled days of activities, teamwork, and school spirit.

4th–6th Grade Field Day: Monday, May 18th
Young 5’s–3rd Grade Field Day: Tuesday, May 19th

Both Field Days will take place at the KHS track. Students will begin walking over around 8:15 AM, with events kicking off shortly after arrival at approximately 8:30 AM. All activities will wrap up before noon.

Families are welcome to attend and cheer on our students as they participate in a variety of fun events. We hope you can join us for these memorable days!

Even though our KES Enrollment Night has passed, there’s still time to get our newest Cardinals registered for the 2026–2027 school year!

We are currently accepting enrollment applications for both Kindergarten and GSRP Preschool. If you, or someone you know, has a child ready to begin their school journey, we’re here to help every step of the way.

For more information, please contact the KES main office. Families interested in preschool can also complete the GSRP registration form (children must turn 4 by December 1, 2026). We look forward to welcoming our newest Cardinals!
