Dr. Koop's Newsletter
December 15, 2023
Dear KRS families,
Congratulations to our KRS student orchestra, band, and chorus musicians for performing in two exceptional concerts. Thank you to the directors Mrs. Quinlan, Mrs. McEachern, and Mr. Rossi for their direction of the fabulous ensembles. Next week, is the last week before break. Friday, December 22, 2023 is an early dismissal day at 12:45 PM.
Tuesday was a monumental day for the Madison School District. The approval of all three of the referendum questions, will lead to positive changes in the future for the district facilities. As we progress, I will keep you informed about the positive changes ahead for the KRS building. Thank you for voting.
Have a great weekend!
Sincerely,
Dr. Kathy Koop
