KES Family Newsletter

To start 2025, Kingston Community Schools is completing a strategic action planning process. Our committee is made up of the Superintendent, Elementary and Jr/Sr High Principals, Technology Director, Maintenance Director, three school board members, a parent and a student. The purpose of this strategic action plan is to identify what our students, staff, families, and community believes are our successes, what barriers we might have and what goals we will set and work toward as a district.

On January 14th, all stakeholders in the district will receive an email link to a 3-question survey created by our strategic action planning committee. If you are unsure if we have your email address, please contact the Superintendent's office. The questions included in the survey are:

1. What do you think Kingston Community Schools is doing well? (e.g. student progress, transportation, building/grounds, etc.)
2. What obstacles/barriers/challenges do you feel are in the way?
3. As we look to the future, what should be the district's top priorities?

Once you have answered each of the questions separately, you will be given the opportunity to rate the responses of others who have completed the survey. Your responses to the 3 questions, as well as your ratings of others' responses, will remain anonymous. You can come back as often as you'd like to participate and rate the responses of others. We encourage you to do so, as this will help us understand the most important areas to focus on for our Strategic Action Plan.
