🌟 Student Spotlight – Share Your Child's Talents! 🌟
At KES, our students shine both inside and outside the classroom! Many of our talented students participate in extracurricular activities such as sports, theater, dance, academic competitions, art, STEM, technology, community service, volunteering, and so much more.
This year, we'd love to celebrate these achievements by featuring our students in our parent newsletter! If you would like to spotlight your child or a group of KES students, please send a photo along with a brief description of the activity to lisa.broussard@vpsb.net.
We can't wait to showcase the many ways our KES students are making a difference and sharing their talents!
