Kingwood Elementary School

Greetings, KES Families! This is just a reminder that, whenever your child is absent for any reason--illness, doctor/dental procedure, family emergency, funeral, etc.--he/she MUST bring either a doctor and/or parent note UPON RETURN TO SCHOOL in order for the absence to be excused. Students are permitted 5 parent notes per semester.

I just received word that those riding Adam Foleys bus that were taking the kids to VFW will need to do so again today. We anticipate a normal run tomorrow. Sorry for the inconvenience.

2022 WVGSA/SAT Results Today your child brought home a paper copy of their results and an email was sent to your child's school email address and/or your personal email if you have one on file to watch a video report. Contact Darla Moyers @ 304.329.0580 Ext. 250 or email at darla.moyers@k12.wv.us for assistance. More information about these test results are on our website at, https://tinyurl.com/2zp3ubmb

https://forms.office.com/r/8TkWN0RHUv Online Information Sheet deadline is Wednesday, August 31, 2022. We only have a little over 1/2 of the students completed. Just a reminder that Friday, September 2, 2022 is a 2 Hour Early Out and Monday, September, 5th - No School.

One additional announcement: Families, this is just a friendly reminder that you should be dropping your children off at their designated outside areas in the mornings if you choose to walk with them. Staff is more than happy to assist your children while walking inside of our buildings. Our effort is to keep everyone safe, and the less traffic we have throughout our buildings in the mornings, the better able we are to do this. If you need to see Miss Kim, the nurse, or principal, please let someone know so you can wait at the Main Office to do so. Thanks!
