Wednesday morning we will have Picture Retake Day. Bring your best smile.
We are looking forward to welcoming back our students on Monday for face to face learning. Remember to return your charged Chromebook, bring your water bottle and other learning materials.
Hello Kincheloe Families this is Mrs. Stone with a reminder.
Tomorrow we will be returning to face to face instruction. Please remind your student to return their clean Chromebook. The whole staff is looking forward to seeing you.
Parents, as we prepare for virtual learning next week, teachers will be sending home at least one QR code that will serve as a login badge for kindergarten-5th grade students to get into Chromebooks. This will help in the login process for the devices. Teachers will be practicing this with students to ensure they are ready. If you have questions, please contact your building office. The following link will give you video instructions: https://www.loom.com/share/ac1244e1259c48189eb6e5a45cebde52?sharedAppSource=personal_library

We have been working on accommodating our additional car traffic in both the morning and the afternoon. To increase safety our traffic officer said to have everyone come in from the west. That means that all traffic will be in the right lane to enter the parking lot. At pick up, please pull all the way down to the end of the drive, to the adult. Cars will be loaded there.
Kincheloe's Picture Day is Monday, October 26.
