Kittredge Konnection – October 25, 2022

This Week’s News

Big Wins and Big Grins!

Last week was a big week for our Kittredge athletes!

Monday’s Cross Country runners made us proud at the Lindley Meadow meet, and our Volleyball team brought home another win, continuing an excellent season.

There will be a Cross Country meet this Friday, October 28, at 4:30pm.

We are so proud of each and every one of our Coyotes!

Diwali Celebration

Kittredge’s Diwali celebration on Monday was a total joy! We love seeing our vibrant community come together to learn to dance bhangra, make chalk rangolis, eat samosas, and drink mango lassi!

A big thank you to our KPA parent volunteers, Anna Malyala, Riva Gokhale, and Jessica May-Shah, who made this celebration happen.

To see all the fun in action, check out @kittredgeschool on Instagram!

Pumpkin Patch

Tomorrow’s the big day! One of the most anticipated field trips of the school year, the lower grades pumpkin patch trip, happens tomorrow – Wednesday, October 26th.

If your child uses a booster seat, please send it to school with them on the 26th. Don’t forget to pack a hearty lunch, water bottle, and comfortable walking shoes.

Next Week’s News

Halloween

Halloween is next week already! Can you believe it?!

Students (and teachers) are encouraged to wear costumes all day, and participate in the Halloween spirit. Costumes may not contain any toy weapons, and anything that might interfere with learning (masks, wings, and other distracting accessories) should be kept in students’ backpacks during class time. As a reminder, Kittredge is a candy-free school.

Our annual costume parade will be on Monday, October 31 at 2:30pm. Parents are encouraged to meet students outside of Kittredge and parade to Rochambeau Park, where our music teacher Gianfranco will lead the students in a Halloween song. Afterwards, students, parents, goblins, and ghouls may stay to mingle and celebrate the holiday. Parents must notify their child’s teacher before leaving the playground with their child.
