ATTENDANCE MATTERS
Help make school attendance a priority
• Talk about the importance of showing up to school every day.
• Help your student maintain daily routines, such as finishing homework and getting a good night’s sleep.
• Try not to schedule dental and medical appointments during the school day.
• If your student must stay home because they are sick, or in quarantine, make sure they have asked teachers for resources and materials to make up for the missed learning time in the classroom.
The faculty and staff of KCSD encourage parents to ensure that students attend school everyday in order to achieve academic success!
If you are concerned about your student's attendance, please reach out to your student's school counselor.
#KeystoneCares- March is Music in Our Schools Month
March is Music in our Schools Month, which has been celebrated since 1985! The celebration of music in schools actually began a bit earlier when the National Association of Music Education created a day to celebrate music education on March 13th, 1975. Actually, even before this, the state of New York started celebrating teaching music in 1973. Music in our Schools Month encourages schools to create music education programs for children of all ages because there are countless benefits of learning about, playing, and enjoying music.
