Veterans Day Assembly

Monday, November 11th @ 10:00 AM । Kinsner Elementary

This event will be live streamed on the Strongsville website. Due to the size of the gym along with the number of families in attendance we aren’t able to have all grades in the gym at once. Historically, this means that 4th and 5th graders will attend the event assembly portion, while K-3 will watch that part within the classroom.

Cleaning out those closet to get ready for winter? If you have coats that do not fit anymore please consider donating them to WE CARE. Kinsner Student Council is helping Strongsville Firefighters collect coats for WE CARE. Coats can be NEW or CLEAN, used coats. Donations may be brought to the Kinsner Main Office through November 15th. Thank you!!!

Costume Guidance:

The Fall party is on Thursday, 10/31. Students may bring their costume (or part of it) to school if they wish. They will have only a few minutes to dress at the start of the party. The costume needs to be something that your child can quickly slip on over his/her clothes. (Students will not be going to the restroom to change). No masks, hair color, face paint, makeup, or weapons are allowed at school. Please leave all extra accessories at home so they don’t get lost. Thank you for your cooperation.
