We love our volunteers at Soldotna Elementary! Thank you for your time and dedication to our school!

Registration can be completed on the KPBSD website. Kinders need to be 5 years old by September 1, 2025. Parents need to bring in a birth certificate and immunization record to the school office. The office will make copies as needed. We look forward to welcoming our new class of kinders!

Come and enjoy lunch with your child during their regular lunch time. Soup will be available for purchase for $10. This will include three cups of soup, a roll, and a drink. If you are interested in contributing a crockpot of soup for this fundraiser please contact Leslie Blanning at lblanning@gci.net.

All proceeds go directly to Soldotna Elementary to support our students!

80's Dress-up Day - Break out the leg warmers and big hair for a flashback 80's outfit!

Pre-registration for the 2025-2026 school year will be available beginning in April. Parents can access the form through the parent portal on Powerschool. Please take the time to register your child for school next year.

Soldotna Elementary has seen an increase in GI/stomach bug within our student body since Spring Break. Friendly reminder: if your student has had a fever or vomited at home, KPBSD policy requires they remain home for 24 hours from the point of fever or vomiting. Thank you for helping keep our classrooms as germ-free as possible!

Attention Parents...

You can help raise money for our school. If you are a Fred Meyer Customer, you can link your Rewards Card to our school so that whenever you use your card when shopping at Freddy’s, our school will receive a quarterly donation. Check it out at: www.fredmeyer.com/topic/community-rewards-4 The more people that sign up the more the school receives for our students.

Students go out to recess every day rain, shine, or snow. Please make sure that your child is properly dressed for the weather. Also, please mark your child's gear with their name!

Registered kindergarteners planning on attending Soldotna Elementary will have the opportunity to visit the classrooms and meet their teacher for next year!
