Thank You, Families!

Teachers felt the Kittredge love last week. Thank you for the food that filled our bellies and warmed our hearts. It feels wonderful to be appreciated and we felt your caring consideration last week more than ever. Thank you for bringing this positive spirit to our community. We are pretty lucky to have you as our Kittredge Family. Thank you.

THIS WEEK’S NEWS

TOMORROW IS: Decade Day

Let’s do the time warp again! From groovy bell-bottoms to radical tie-dye, students will take a journey through the decades.

Choose a decade and dress up on May 11. Join us as we take a trip through the past and then come back to the future on Thursday.

Habit of Mind Assembly: Thinking Flexibly

Student council will introduce this habit to our student body tomorrow afternoon at a school wide assembly. We’ve all learned to pivot these last couple of years. Let’s see how that can help us be better learners.

For example, if the expiration date printed on your box says 2022-05-21 (YYYY-MM-DD), the updated expiration date is 2022-08-21 (YYYY-MM-DD).
