PRINCIPAL’S CORNER

Welcome to the 2023-24 school year. It’s hard to believe the new school year is almost here. It seems like summer has just begun. I hope you have enjoyed your summer and that your child/children are recharged, ready to learn and ready to challenge themselves. To help prepare for the new school year, here are some dates, deadlines and tasks that parents and students need to take care of before the first day of school on Tuesday, August 15th.

Registration & Paperwork

All families should register their children each year, even if your student is a returning student. This allows us to update important information including correct email and phone numbers so we can reach you. Please remember to fill out the following forms:

· One-to-one Chromebook program permission form

· Hanover Climate Survey Form

You can find the registration link on the KPBSD website at https://kpbsd.org/students-parents/student-registration/
