HAPPY SUMMER!!!!

NEW STUDENT REGISTRATION!

Registration for Kindergarten and new 1st through 4th grade students will begin on Wednesday, August 23rd.   Our office will be open weekdays, between 8:00 a.m. and 3:00 p.m., with the exception of August 29th & September 5th.  Please remember to bring your child's birth certificate and immunization information.  If your child received his/her shots in Washington State, we can look them up online, print the form and have you sign the form during the registration process. Children must meet immunization requirements by the first day of school, but do not need to be fully immunized before registration.  (Students entering Kindergarten must be 5 years old by August 31, 2017.)

PARENTS OF PRE-REGISTERED KINDERGARTEN STUDENTS:

Welcome to Kettle Falls Elementary School! We are looking forward to an exciting year! Listed below are a few tidbits of information for you. Please call us anytime you have a question.

We must have all updated immunization information and a copy of the birth certificate before the first day of school.

In order to balance student placement, we will be doing a short Kindergarten readiness screening on Wednesday, September 6, 2017. In late August, we will be mailing you a letter containing your screening time, etc. Your child will need to be accompanied by an adult to the screening, which takes approximately one hour. We will be placing students in classes after the screening and then your child’s teacher will call you to set up a Parent/Student/Teacher conference to be held either September 7th or 8th.  You will be able to visit your child’s classroom and meet his/her teacher at that time. Tentatively, your child’s first day of kindergarten will be Monday, September 11^th. School hours are 8:20 to 2:50, 9:20 to 2:50 on Wednesdays.

Transportation information and federal lunch forms will be available by September 5th.

Please watch for more information to be sent home! In addition to sending notes home, we use a system called School Messenger to inform parents of upcoming activities, school closures, etc. The system calls the student’s primary phone number. Please make sure that the school has your updated phone numbers, etc., at all times.

We would like to encourage all parents to visit our website for school district information. Please go to kfschools.org and click on the school of your choice. There is also a special tab for parents which includes forms, information, policies, etc.

If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact our office at 738-6725.

OPEN HOUSE FOR ALL ELEMENTARY STUDENTS & THEIR FAMILIES!

We would like to encourage all families to plan to attend Kettle Falls Elementary School's Open House on Tuesday, September 5th, from 4:00 to 5:00 p.m.  More details will be included in the packet of forms and information that will be mailed to you in late August.  (Please remember to return all requested forms at Open House on September 5th, or on the first day of school!)  Thank you!
