Engaging parents to help us improve

Kuna families

Today's the start of the final quarter of the 2021-22 School Year -- no foolin' ! The next 10 weeks are full of learning and activities.

I invite you to mark your calendar now for Thursday, May 12 📅.

Our Superintendent's Advisory Council will host an information night for our parents. The topics are being finalized and will focus on equipping all of us to support our children as they face challenges.

Empowering parents with information emerged as a need from members of the council and participants in our study circles talked together about the social and emotional needs of the children in our community.

I want to thank the amazing engaged parents who make up our advisory group. I wasn't sure if meeting the Monday after spring break would be a good idea, but our dedicated members showed up. They also continue to make a difference in their children's schools (photos above) as substitutes, workshop providers, and serving on participants in parent councils.

We appreciate the time they give to make sure parents are involved in the decisions that impact their families.

One of their recommendations was for us to share more about events for children in the community. You'll see us sharing afterschool and summer camp opportunities below. We'll include links to community sports groups in our Sports Report.

If you know of something, please email ksdcommunications@kunaschools.org.
