Dear Parents and Guardians,

As part of our ongoing effort to build a kind, respectful, and inclusive community, we encourage you to take a moment to talk with your child about the importance of treating everyone with understanding and acceptance.

Please remind them that our differences—whether in background, appearance, ability, or beliefs—make our community stronger and more vibrant. A kind word, a welcoming gesture, and a respectful attitude can go a long way in helping everyone feel valued and supported.

Thank you for partnering with us in nurturing empathy, respect, and inclusion in all that we do.

Stay Healthy This Cold & Flu Season!
Cold and flu season is here, and we want to keep our students feeling their best! Please help us by keeping your child home if they are not feeling well, especially if they have a fever, cough, sore throat, or upset stomach. Children should be fever-free for at least 24 hours (without medicine) before coming back to school. Thank you for helping us keep our classrooms happy, healthy, and full of learning this season!

For everyone’s safety and to help arrival run smoothly, please remain in the designated car line at all times. The inner lane should only be used if you are parking your vehicle.

During dismissal, please do not park along the side of Kinloch, as this creates unsafe conditions for students and families. Your cooperation helps keep everyone in the safest possible environment.

A few tips to make arrival quicker and smoother:

Please make sure you’ve said your goodbyes before reaching the drop-off area.
Have your child ready with their backpack when a staff member or safety opens the door.
For everyone’s safety, please refrain from using your phone while in the car line so we can all stay alert and move up safely when it’s time.

Thank you for your patience and continued support in keeping our students safe!

Linkes are the November Calendars for Breakfast and Lunch for the 2025-2026 School year.

Breakfast

Lunch

If you are planning on your child celebrating their birthday in class, we kindly ask that you choose one special treat to provide for your child on their special day. We encourage you to keep treats small and easy to share or enjoy individually. Please remember that classroom celebrations are meant to focus on recognizing our students and creating joyful memories together.

Please ensure your I-Chat is completed yearly and up to date with our office. It does take a few days to process so keep that in mind when planning ahead for volunteering opportunities!
