Open Houses
Thank you to parent rep Mindee, graduate Charlotte, and 8th graders Eli and Henry for their help at last week's Open House. We had such a nice time, we think we'll do it again!
On Saturday, October 19, we invite parents of Kindergarten applicants to join us at Kittredge at 10am. Childcare will be available for children ages 4 and up.
If you know of a family that you think would be a great fit, send them our way! We'd love to meet them.
Character Day
You may have noticed that the Kittredge kids looked a little different yesterday... that's becuase yesterday was Character Day! Students came dressed as characters from their favorite movies, tv shows, video games, and more! It was so much fun to see everyone all dressed up and in costume. We think we'll dress up again at the end of the month!
