Looking Ahead
KPA Donut Hike
KPA would like to announce that Sunday, February 5th is the fourth annual Kittredge family donut hike!
We’ll meet at the Presidio tunnel tops at 10am (specific location will be sent) and do a roughly 1-1.5 mile walk around Crissy field, ending at the kids exploration play area at the tunnel tops for Bob’s donuts (like fluffy clouds of warm sugar goodness) and coffee.
It’s a fun relaxed tradition, and we hope you can all join in!
$20 donation per family to help support the KPA can be venmo’ed to @DevonMcConnell

Secure Your Child’s Spot in the Kittredge Summer Program!
The dates are set and we are open for signups! Kittredge’s Summer School will run from Tuesday, June 20 through Friday, July 21.
Summer School is broken up into three parts of the day:
Morning Academic Program: 9am-12pm
The Kittredge Morning Academic Program emphasizes the basic skills of mathematics, reading, and English language arts. Our small class size (maximum of 15 students) allows each teacher to engage the students in a variety of activities to enrich their academic foundation, keeping them involved and interested in learning. Students are assessed and placed in learning groups not by grade alone, but by achievement level as well. Tuition is $1750.00 for the 5-week academic session.
Afternoon Enrichment Classes 12pm-3pm
Arts and crafts, music, poetry, and other recreational activities will be available during these hours.
Field trips will take place on Friday afternoons and will round out these fun afternoons. Students will walk to Baker Beach, the Presidio and a variety of local playgrounds.
Extended Day Program: 7:45am-9am & 3pm-6pm
Activities, puzzles, games, supervised study, and quiet reading time, will be provided in conjunction with the Morning Academic Program during these hours. A snack will be provided at 4:30pm. If adding onto the Morning Academic Program tuition, the Afternoon Enrichment Classes plus the Extended Day program are $650.00 for the 5-week after school session.
Summer School sign-ups are online via the following Google form:
