Big News & Bright Starts at the Early Learning Center!
The school year is off to an incredible start! Thanks to our commitment to high-quality early education, our center was awarded nearly $9,000 in classroom and playground upgrades through the Imagine Institute pilot program over the last year.
Highlights of our new, state-of-the-art learning environments include:
The Book Nook Tree & Quiet Corner Tube: Spaces designed for early literacy and self-regulation.
Expanded Outdoor Play: Upgraded gear for four-square, sandbox discovery, and dramatic play that builds active teamwork.
Because of this innovation, our center was chosen as one of only five state programs to be featured in a statewide Imagine Institute video!
Investing in Every Child & Family
Through a new grant, we also added specialized AAC communication tools and PECS so every student has a voice. Plus, our new Social-Emotional Curriculumโpaired with a parent app for learning at homeโis helping students build the focus and behavior skills they need for kindergarten readiness.
Thank you to our amazing teachers, families and the community for supporting our communityโs youngest learners!

As we gear up for the new school year, Colville Toyota donated three $150 classroom gift cards to help our teachers prepare their classrooms and stock up on essential supplies for our students.
Because great communities truly begin with great teachers, support like this makes a lasting impact on our schools. Thank you, Colville Toyota, for being a true "Community at Heart" and living up to your name as the small-town dealership with the BIG, BIG heart! โค๏ธโ๏ธ

We are having the absolute best summer making memories, exploring new ideas, and enjoying the beautiful weather! Hereโs a little peek into what our amazing kiddos have been up to lately:
๐จ Chalk Masterpieces & Outdoor Play: Our days are filled with fresh air, laughter, and a whole lot of color. The kids have been turning our sidewalks into their own personal art galleries with some amazing sidewalk chalk creations!
๐โโ๏ธ Room 2 is On the Move: Our Room 2 friends have been diving into a unit all about exercise and keeping our bodies healthy. To put their learning into action, they tackled a custom-built outdoor obstacle course. There was jumping, balancing, and a whole lot of cheering each other on! After the exercise they spend time resting on the grass looking for shapes in the clouds.
๐ Deep Sea Discoveries: Our school-age crew is exploring the wonders of the ocean this summer! Theyโve been learning all about fascinating sea life and even got to tap into their creative sides by painting beautiful, unique seashells.
๐ A Very Special Library Trip: All of our ELC kids got to visit the library for a super exciting, special storytime to celebrate our country's big 250th birthday! ๐บ๐ธโจ
๐ณ Tree Ring Science: On another trip to the library, our school-age kiddos also got to take a deep dive into learning about trees. They acted like real scientists, studying tree rings to discover how old a tree is and what its life was like through history.
We are so proud of how hard our campers are playing, learning, and growing together.







We currently have openings in our Transition to Kindergarten program. Donโt miss this opportunity for your child to build a strong foundation for their educational journey.
What is Transition to Kindergarten?
Transition to Kindergarten is a free, full-day Kindergarten readiness program designed to help children build a solid foundation for school success through play-based learning. This program provides opportunities for students to grow in areas such as pre-reading, pre-writing, early numeracy, and social skills.
Who is eligible?
To be eligible for this program, children must:
Be 4 years old on or before August 31st, 2026, and will be entering Kindergarten in the Fall of 2027
Demonstrate academic and/or social needs
To enroll, go to our district website www.kfschools.org and complete online new student enrollment. For questions call the district office at 509-738-6625.

Due to the school cancellation on Thursday, March 12th, caused by the district-wide power outage, we have scheduled a make-up day to meet our instructional requirements.
๐๏ธ Make-Up Date: Monday, June 15th
๐ซ Status: School will be in session for all students and staff.
Please update your calendars and planners! We appreciate your flexibility and understanding as we ensure our students get their full academic year in.
At KFELC, we believe that education is a team effort. While the learning that happens each day is vital, the magic truly happens when we open our doors to the families who make our community whole. Recently, weโve seen firsthand how Family Engagement creates a supportive, joyful environment for our students to thrive.
Celebrating Friendship and Creativity
Over in Ms. Amandaโs class, love was in the air during our Valentineโs Day celebration. Family members joined us for an afternoon of heartfelt connection, where students exchanged valentines and got creative with cookie-decorating. These moments allow parents to see their childrenโs social worlds up close, turning a simple school party into a cherished family memory.
Sweet Starts & St. Paddyโs Fun
In Ms. Cassyโs class, we recently hosted "Pastries with Parents" during morning drop-off. There is no better way to start the day than with a doughnut and a smile! After enjoying some treats, parents stayed to dive into festive St. Patrickโs Day activities with their children. Seeing parents and students collaborate on crafts before we started our daily routines reminded us that a little extra time together can set the tone for a week of success.
Why It Matters
When families are involved, students feel a greater sense of belonging and pride in their school. These events arenโt just about doughnuts or cookies; they are about:
Building Trust: Creating open lines of communication between teachers and parents.
Modeling Connection: Showing our students that their education is valued by the most important people in their lives.
Creating Memories: Making school a place of joy and community.
We want to extend a huge thank you to every parent and guardian who took the time to join us. Your presence makes our school a brighter place!

At KFELC, Tuesdays arenโt just another day of the weekโthey are for discovery, mess-making, and wonder! Ms. Amandaโs students have been diving head-first into the world of science with hands-on experiments that bring the "how" and "why" of our world to life. From weather patterns to chemical reactions, our little scientists are busy exploring. A few featured experiments include:
Hurricanes in a Jar: We spun up our own miniature storms to see the power of a vortex!
Shaving Cream Rain Clouds: Using water, shaving cream, and food coloring, we visualized exactly how clouds get heavy and release rain. ๐ง๏ธ
The Big Fizz: We combined ice, vinegar, baking soda, and a splash of color to watch the magic of chemical reactions in real-time. ๐ฅ
Thereโs nothing quite like the look of "aha!" on a student's face when the science finally clicks. Itโs no wonder this is the highlight of our week!






Huge congratulations to the Kettle Falls Trap Team for an incredible performance this weekend! In a massive field of 20 squads, our shooters stayed locked in and brought home the 3rd place trophy. ๐ฅ๐ฏ
It was a long day at the range, but the hard work is clearly paying off. We are so proud of how these athletes represented Kettle Falls with focus and sportsmanship.
