Embedded Files
Kingsley staff ROCKS! I deeply appreciate your effort, hours, & the love that you pour into students & one another. Our commitment to one another & passion for serving students & families has sustained us this past year. Let's celebrate YOU!
The PTO & KJ Admin have teamed up to provide a week of treats! We will kick off Monday with coffee & fancy creamers plus teas, & hot chocolate.
If you have a food allergy, WE WANT TO INCLUDE YOU TOO! Please email Val or Stacie if we haven't already talked about how we can accommodate dietary restrictions.
Remote Goodie Bag Delivery
Remote Goodie Bag Delivery
Because our remote-only students have not been able to participate in the Cav Cash store, PTO agreed to purchase items that we have placed into bags & plan to deliver to homes.
Some PTO members have offered to help with delivery. We are in the process of creating specific, KJHS-remote learner Google Maps to make per elementary school. If you would like to deliver goodie bags too, please email Stacie.

Staff Symptoms & Guidance (updated March 2021) Staff who are fully vaccinated (a minimum of 14 days AFTER the 2nd/last vaccine in the series) can be exempt from quarantine if a family member has symptoms, as long as they do not have any symptoms. Staff can report to work as long as they provide a copy of their vaccination card to you for verification.
Staff Covid Reporting Form: Staff who are exposed to a positive case and would be considered a close contact should still fill out the staff reporting form even if fully vaccinated (a minimum of 14 days AFTER the 2nd/last vaccine in the series) so the monitoring team can determine if quarantine is necessary based on the criteria.
We need to continue self-certifying wellness.
