Kittredge Konnection - September 10, 2024



This Week's News


Thank You for Coming to the Fall Picnic!


Another successful Fall Picnic in the books! We loved seeing students, parents, teachers, and alumni chatting, laughing, and playing in Mountain Lake Park. Between the delish potluck dishes and the great company, we truly couldn't have asked for a better way to kick off the year. Thank you, Kittredge!


Back-to-School Night is TOMORROW!


Tomorrow, Wednesday, September 11, at 6:30pm we invite you to join us here at Kittredge for a night of getting to know your child's teachers, and the rest of the school! As a reminder, this is an opportunity to meet your child's teachers, but this is not a parent-teacher conference. Please reach out to your child's teacher to schedule a meeting if you need a one-on-one discussion.


We understand that some parents have multiple Kittredge students, and need to split between two classrooms. If this is the case for you, we understand! Your child's teacher can make sure you get all of the information you need. Similarly, if you are unable to attend Back-to-School Night, please let us know! We will make sure to get you the important information.


Extended Day will close at 6pm, as usual. We will not be offering childcare during Back to School night.


Last Chance to Register for Kid Stock!


This is your last chance to sign your child up for an after-school Drama workshop with Kid Stock! Registration is due no later than tomorrow, Wednesday, September 11.


Every Monday from 3:15 to 5:15, students will meet for a two-hour rehearsal. The first session will begin on Monday the 16th. Rehearsals include rotating workshops in song, dance, and drama as well as full cast activities. Kid Stock serves as a great creative outlet for students who take a particular interest in the performing arts. If you're interested in signing your child up, you can do so here.
