Up Next: KPES Building Scavenger Hunt
KPES's first scavenger hunt was a HUGE success with over 120 families attending. Students and families are invited to explore Kings Park ES both inside and out. This is an informal opportunity where no registration is required and provides a sneak peek into some common spaces and places. Please arrive via door 1 to receive your map of clues in the lobby. While this session is a repeat, families are welcome to attend both events.
- Tuesday, August 9th: 9:00am- 9:30am
On Deck: Welcome Walk, August 15th 4-7pm
Kings Park staff will be offering a Welcome Walk for all registered families this year. The Welcome Walk is an informal time for you to meet your child's teacher for the 2022-2023 school year. To participate you must register via the below survey!
Your child's teacher and a KPES staff buddy will come to your home for a brief 3-5 minute doorstep visit. This year's welcome walk will be held on Monday, August 15th between 4pm-7pm. To participate you will need to be home during this time frame. If you are not going to be home at this date/time frame OR would prefer to meet the teacher virtually, please indicate that in this survey and you child's teacher will contact you to schedule a virtual meet and greet.
Please complete the survey to indicate your preference by August 8, 2022 at 1pm. To support the management and preplanning necessary for this event, please note that if no survey is submitted for a student, the virtual option will be assumed and scheduled.
