KAES Is Getting A School Counselor
We are excited to announce that we will soon have a part-time school counselor at KAES.
With over two decades of dedicated service in education, ranging from pre-kindergarten to high school, Regina Martinez has established herself as a cornerstone of student support and well-being in education as a school counselor.
Her career is marked by a deep commitment to fostering academic success, personal growth, spiritual growth, and emotional resilience in students. Regina’s expertise spans a diverse range of counseling practices from individual and classroom guidance lessons to academic advising and parental guidance.
She believes that every student deserves a supportive and nurturing environment to thrive academically, socially, and emotionally. Her counseling philosophy centers on building trusting relationships with students and their families, promoting resilience, and empowering individuals to achieve their full potential.
Regina is thrilled to join KAES, where she hopes to make a meaningful difference in the lives of children by imparting valuable skills and fostering a love for learning that extends far beyond. Her enthusiasm, dedication, and genuine passion for education make her a valuable asset to our community.
Please look for more information in your email as we get our counseling program up and running at KAES.
Eyes, Ears, and Scoliosis Screening the Monday Sept. 9 and 11.
Monday we have our annual eyes, ears, and scoliosis screening scheduled. These screenings will help detect possible challenges children may have in these areas. If your child uses glasses or hearing aids please make sure they bring them on Monday. The rescreening will be on Tuesday if your child misses Monday or forgets his/her glasses.
School shirts
Every student should have their school Monday shirts. If you need a different size, please exchange it in the office. Parents, if you would like a shirt or an extra shirt for your child they are $12.
Join us for Grandparents Day Sept. 13!!! Order today!
Mission MAP Accomplished
Thank you for supporting your child in doing his/her best this week with MAP growth testing. We still have a few tests to finish over the next week but you should receive test results by the end of next week. Please take a few minutes to review your child's progress. Teachers will also be available to answer questions during parent/teacher conferences.
