Kohlberg Elementary Newletter
Week of 11-3-25
Thank you for your amazing participation in Red Ribbon Week! Our Coyotes showed incredible school spirit and commitment to making healthy, positive choices. It was wonderful to see so many Coyotes proudly celebrating each themed day and supporting the message of living drug-free! Thank you to all of our families who donated candy for our fall parade, it was a huge success with our students.
As we move closer to the Thanksgiving Break, we want to remind all families of the importance of daily attendance. Every day counts toward your child’s learning and success. Consistent attendance helps students stay engaged, confident, and prepared as we close out this semester strong.
Thank you for your continued support and for being such an important part of our Kohlberg community.
