Endangered Species International
Thank you to our student council who sponsored a Bake Sale today, benefitting Endangered Specied International! Everyone was able to receive items for the sale. Donations are not required but are being accepted until Friday. Thank you for supporting animals in need!
Responding With Wonderment and Awe
This month's Habit of Mind is Responding with Wonderment and Awe - and nothing makes us respond with wonder and awe quite like sparkles! Sparkle Day filled Kittredge with glitter and glow - just what we needed on a rainy Monday!
The sun came out just in time for our assembly, where our students responded with Wonderment and Awe as we talked about the amazing things that surround us every day.
To see photos and video of this wonderful day, see our post and follow us on Instagram!

6th Grade Goes to the Mission
This Friday, November 15, our 6th grade class is going on a field trip to San Francisco's Mission District.

After lunch, they will visit the Mission Cultural Center. Students should bring money to purchase lunch, and should wear weather-appropriate clothing and comfortable walking shoes.
Hot Lunch
