Thursday 9/22 - Parent/Teacher Conferences
All parents should schedule a time to meet with their student's teacher. If your student's homeroom teacher has not communicated his or her meeting schedule and time slots, please ask what time slots are available and schedule your conference appointment. Be advised that some teachers manage their own schedule and the front office staff schedules appointments for some teachers. Similarly, some teachers prefer to have as many conferences as possible on the official conference day, while others prefer to space out conferences over the course of a week. So, confirm how your student's teacher is managing their parent/teacher conference schedule.
Friday 9/23 - Pinwheels for Peace
This will be Kingsley's 6th year participating in this global event. All students at Kingsley Charter School will participate in Pinwheels for Peace as a way of recognizing and celebrating International Day of Peace. All students will have an opportunity to make a pinwheel. They will be encouraged to write their feelings about peace on one side and create an illustration on the other. Students may choose to express their ideas using a poem, song, or diary/journal entry. It is truly a wonderful sight to see the front lawn of Kingsley covered in beautiful pinwheels, so drive by if you can! For more information about the global program, visit the Pinwheels for Peace website at www.pinwheelsforpeace.com.
