TEACHER APPRECIATION WEEK

This week, May 4- May 8, is Teacher Appreciation Week!

Our teachers and staff work hard each day to support, encourage, and care for our students.

If you would like to participate, this is a great week to show your child’s teacher a
little extra appreciation with a kind note, drawing, or small gesture of thanks.
We truly appreciate all they do for our Keewaydin students and families!
 

IMPORTANT! Information for Returning Keewaydin Students

For continuing Keewaydin students, schedules and information for the new school year will be mailed out in late AUGUST.

To ensure families receive this information, please make sure we have your current and accurate contact information on file.

If you have recently moved or have a new phone number or email address, please notify the office so we can keep your student’s information up to date.
