Thank You to the KPA for a Wonderful Teacher Appreciation Week!
We would like to thank our incredible Kittredge Parents Association for an amazing Teacher's Appreciation Week! From breakfast to lunch to the most important meal of all - dessert! - they made us feel so special all throughout the week. We really are the luckiest little school in the city!
