The Big Event- Register on the KISD Webstore! 

Hello, Florence Elementary School Families,  

The Big Event is coming to Keller ISD on Saturday, April 6, and we’re so excited for our campus to participate!  

As background, The Big Event is a district-wide day of service open to all KISD students, their families, and staff members from each of KISD’s 42 campuses. The event is designed to not only join and unite our district and campus together through service-oriented activities, but also to express gratitude for the support of the communities who give back to KISD each and every day. Think of it as a giant, tangible “Thank you.” 

On April 6, each KISD campus will come together at the same times across our district and the surrounding communities to serve and give back. I’m excited to share that Florence Elementary School will be participating in the following activities on the day of The Big Event, and your student(s) and your family are invited to join us:  

9:00 AM -11:00 AM  

• Kindergarten: make friendship bracelets for patients at Texas Scottish Rite Hospital for Children  

12:00 PM -2:00 PM  

• First Grade: plant flowers and work in school’s courtyard garden; make individual flowerpots for recipients of Metroport Meals on Wheels 

• Second Grade: trash pick-up at Royal and Annie Smith Park 

• Third Grade: Make homemade blankets for those staying at Salvation Army of Tarrant County 

• Fourth Grade: donation drive for non-skid socks and card/drawing creation for residents at Heritage House Keller Rehabilitation and Nursing 

You can sign your child and your family up to volunteer and sign the district’s liability waiver on KISD’s secure Web Store here. To access the Web Store, parents/students must log in with their student ID number and student’s last name (in upper/lowercase letters). Once logged in, you should see your child’s name at the top of the screen.  After clicking on your child’s name, you will see a search feature at the top of the screen.  Type “Big” in the search field and click search.  You will be taken straight to the Big Event items for your child’s campus. 

Be on the lookout next month for an email containing specific, day-of details for the job(s) you signed up for. Note that we’re asking each student to wear their Florence Elementary School T-shirt on the day of The Big Event, so be sure you locate that today...and, get your social media accounts ready to share photos of your family volunteering; follow Keller ISD on Facebook, Instagram, and X (formerly Twitter); tag the district; and be sure to use the hashtag #KISDBigEvent24!  

This event is not mandatory, but we’d love to have as many Florence Elementary School families, students, teachers, and staff participate in this special day. This is a family-centered event, so we’d ask that families attend with their children if at all possible. Additionally, service hours for organizations like National Honor Society (NHS), National Junior Honor Society (NJHS), Eagle Scouts, Girl Scouts, etc. will be granted for participation in The Big Event.  

Attached to this link is a helpful Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) document, and you can also find more information including a video that guides you through the registration process at: www.kellerisd.net/bigevent. We are so excited about The Big Event and hope you’ll make plans to join us (or the campus of another child in your family) on Saturday, April 6, to serve and give back!
