The Kenwood Courier
We’ve raised enough funds to break ground this summer. Thank you so much to everyone who has already donated to make this excellent addition to the Kenwood campus a reality. We still need to close the final gap on fundraising for things like the trees, furniture, planter boxes, and much more! Any amount helps, so if you haven’t donated yet but wanted to, or want to help make sure we can make it magical, please donate using the QR code below or Venmo @KenwoodPTAMpls.
Dear Kenwood Caregivers:
It's time to plan transportation for the 2025-26 school year! We're excited to introduce My Ride, a new GPS app for caregivers to request busing for students. Download the app, create an account, and submit a Save Your Seat form for each student who needs busing.
You'll receive your bus schedule through the app before school starts and can track the bus in real time during the school year. If you prefer not to use the app, contact your student's school to submit a request on your behalf. All families must complete the transportation form by June 6, even if your schedule remains the same. Reach out to your student's school with questions.
Adding a student to My Ride will now require:
- Student first name
- Student last name
- Student ID
More Information can be found here: https://www.mpschools.org/departments/transportation/myridek12
Let Kenwood PTA save you time and money while assisting your
school community by having us do your school supply shopping. Help students get ready for the 25-26 school year by purchasing school supplies through the PTA, or by donating funds towards school supplies and backpacks for Kenwood students in need. Please place your order by July 18, 2025 here. We will deliver the supplies to your student's classroom before the start of school. Any questions, please email KenwoodSchoolPTA@gmail.com Thanks!
Kids will be planting in the school garden next week and it will be green and growing soon. We are looking for families to help weed, water, HARVEST and enjoy the garden this summer and fall. No gardening experience necessary! 2-3 families share a week at a time - see signup genius to pick your weeks! https://www.signupgenius.com/go/10C084DADA62DA0FB6-56964022-kenwood#/
Questions or want to help with garden planning in the future?: Amy Sanborn amysanborn18@gmail.com or 612-868-8664.
