Join us for a weekend of family fun while enjoying the stunning nature of the Mayacamas Mountains, located just a bit over an hour from San Francisco. This park features breathtaking views, scenic hiking trails with redwoods, ferns, creeks, and waterfalls, plus a chance to stargaze at the Robert Ferguson Observatory.

 Location: Sugarloaf Ridge State Park

 Dates: Friday, May 16 – Sunday, May 18

 RSVP to Leyla Alieva 

Please include the number of adults, kids, and cars in your party so we can plan accordingly.

Teacher Appreciation

One of the best ways we give our teachers love and appreciation every Spring, is by giving our funds and parent volunteer energy to the Teacher Appreciation Luncheon, a Kittredge Teacher favorite, to be hosted on Wednesday, June 4th. More info coming soon! 

The National Teacher Appreciation Week, May 5th - 9th, often gains media attention, but know that you will be showing your teacher love soon through the end of year teacher gift, and the Teacher Appreciation Luncheon. That said, a few parents will work with Ms PB to bring in a special meal for the teachers during the National Week. Reach out if you want to be part of this as well.
