Good evening, KCMS Families,
I hope you are enjoying the fall weather! With the cooler mornings, please remind your students who walk or ride bikes & scooters that we open the building at 8:05. Dress for the weather! Also, supervision is not until 8:05; please do not drop students off until as close to school time as possible.
We are looking forward to another good week at KCMS!
