As the countdown to the 1st day of school has begun for many, let's dive into ways to make the 2023-2024 school year successful!
Attendance matters!! Let's look at the difference between Truancy vs. Chronic Absence. This will help to get a better understanding in which category your child's absences would fall.
Did you know? Our district-wide open house is almost here! Mark you calendar!
On August 22nd from 4pm-6pm you can tour your school, meet your teacher(s) and pickup your iPads (6th-12th)! See you there!
KCSD has joined the Attendance Awareness Campaign! Please stand with us as we are 'Showing Up Together' to reduce chronic absenteeism.
Chronic absenteeism is missing 10% or more of the school year or approximately 18 days over an entire year.
Don't forget to log into Infinite Campus to complete a variety of back to school tasks!
