Happy New Year and Welcome Back
Once again the Holiday Happening kicked off our winter break with great community spirit. Thank you to the KPA, and especially Julie Velarde, for organizing this popular event. Thanks also, to all the families who came and shared the good time and good will with us that evening.
We’re all very happy to see everyone back at school and to begin a new year together.

Hot Lunch Returns
Sleep a little later and skip the chore of packing a lunch on Fridays. The 8th grade class brings this lunch program to you. It helps finance their weeklong program with the Yosemite Institute. Lunch forms must be returned by Thursday so that we can count your child’s order. Download a lunch form here: January Hot Lunch

After School Yoga with Ms. Baker!
Students in grades 1 to 5 will explore yoga postures, meditation and breath awareness through age appropriate games and activities. Students develop creativity, coordination and confidence while developing their minds and bodies.

Kittredge is trying to put together a team for this event. All 4th, 5th, 6th, 7th and 8th graders are eligible to compete. The National Geographic Bee is an annual competition organized by the National Geographic Society, designed to inspire and reward students’ curiosity about the world. Each year, thousands of schools across the United States participate and compete for college scholarships and the glory of being the National Geographic Bee Champion.
