Menu Change:
Due to the anticipated weather forecast, the Thanksgiving School Meal originally on the menu for this Thursday the 21st, will now be served on Wednesday the 20th just in case there's any kind of schedule change. We want to ensure that all of our students have the opportunity to enjoy a nice Thanksgiving Meal prior to break.

The Mobile Ag Lab recently visited KES! This was an exciting learning opportunity for all students in grades PreK through 4. Here, students participated in hands-on science labs and learning experiments using everyday household items, including making glue from milk, extracting DNA from strawberries, and taking a closer look at the parts of a worm.

This message is for families that KES shares with CPMS. On Thursday, November 21, CPMS will complete an evacuation drill which will lead to afternoon dismissal from the Craig Civic Center. Due to the proximity of their alternate dismissal location and KES, please be advised that busses may arrive at the elementary school a little sooner than usual. Other than that, you should be able to retrieve your children from the Fireman’s Field as you would on a regular day.

No two days are alike, and each day brings an opportunity to learn something new at Kingwood Elementary! Last week, each homeroom class in grades PreK through 4 designed a safety container for their pumpkin in an attempt to keep it intact after a fall from a raised fire truck ladder! This made for cross curricular learning, teamwork, and creativity inside our classrooms and outside in our parking lot. Two fourth grade classrooms, Mrs. Uphold’s and Mrs. Zigray’s, had pumpkins that survived the drop! Congratulations! Thank you to the Kingwood Volunteer Fire Department for donating time, manpower, and resources! Thank you to Kingwood Walmart for donating the pumpkins for this event! It takes a village, and we have a wonderful one! We'll see everyone tomorrow!

Kingwood Elementary wrapped up the month up October with contributions to our larger community while having a good time! Last Tuesday, staff and students paid $1.00 to wear pink. All proceeds benefited the Betty Puskar Breast Care Center in Morgantown. A celebration was held in the gym where there was a sea of pink, an informational video about the center was shown, and the $420 check written to the center was revealed/presented. A special thanks to PE teacher Kylie Phillips for organizing the event!
