Friday, November 10th is no school in observance of Veterans Day.
Our annual Special Someone's Day is coming up on Friday, November 17th. For those who are new to Kipling, Special Someone Day is when up to two people who are special to your child can come and spend a half hour with your child in our classroom. This can be a parent, grandparent, aunt, uncle, family friend, etc. 1st Grade's Special Someone time is from 9:45-10:15.
Please click on the this link to fill out the form letting the school know who will be coming for your child.
Please let me know if no one will be able to come for your child as I would like to be able to provide a special someone in the school to be there for your child.
In conjunction with Special Someone Day, the annual Scholastic Book Fair will be going on. Your child's special someone can feel free to go to big gym and view the Book Fair after their time in your child's classroom. Unfortunately, students will not be available to go with their special someone to the Book Fair.
