One School One Book - Book Reveal!

Lots of excitement ended our week here at KRS with the book reveal assembly! Prior to the assembly, the children were given a new clue each morning to help them figure out what KRS is reading together as a whole school! It has been such a fun week and many students were able to figure out that KRS is reading.… The BFG by Roald Dahl!  

Books will be distributed Monday (today) to the oldest sibling along with a pacing calendar and a home letter. Lunchtime trivia returns and is indicated on the calendar in red to give students time to prepare with the at-home reading. Parents and guardians, please know, this reading event is intended to be a family literacy experience. We wish to encourage time set aside for family reading that hopefully spurs great conversation at home, which then continues back here in the building amongst friends and teachers!

A HUGE thank you to our wonderful PTO for once again providing the funding to support this amazing program! We are so thankful for all you do for the staff and students at KRS! Have a wonderful weekend and get ready to “read as a community” next week.  

~ Mrs. Sims

Library Volunteers are Welcome Back to KRS!

Please sign up to help during your child's Library class. Library Class Volunteers will scan books, reshelve books, and help in other ways needed by Mrs. Thomas.  There are three dates for each class beginning February 16 (note: there is no volunteering for the 2/28 B-Day due to the Author Visit). More opportunities will be added after Spring Break.

The Taste of Madison is a party for food lovers, a celebration of Madison as well as a fundraiser that benefits local non-profit initiatives.

Chefs from thirty of the area’s finest restaurants will serve samples of their best dishes. Gary's Wine & Marketplace will provide guests with fine wine, beer, and spirits. The Taste has a Silent Auction, Trick Tray and 50/50 Raffle. Tickets must be purchased in advance and guests must be at least 21 years old. The recommended attire is business casual. 

"The Taste of Madison was established in 2002 as a fun, town-wide fundraiser that is a cure for the winter blues", stated organizers. In its previous nineteen editions, the Taste of Madison has raised more than $600,000 and entertained more than 8,000 guests.

Please consider buying your tickets though the KRS PTO. We will receive $20 for every ticket we sell! Please see the flyer below for more info.

Thank you to Ms. Conner, the KRS Steam Teacher, for organizing such a creative and successful STEAM Fair. We had a great turnout, with 75 students participating and many families showing up to support their budding scientists! Ms. Conner told us, “There were so many innovative projects, and the effort and enthusiasm really shined through!” Thank you to all who participated and to the parents, who supported their children and their ideas!

Did you know that our KRS school principal, Dr. Koop, sends out a newsletter every week? It's a great source of in-school information and reminders, as well as a snapshot of what happened during the week for our kids. Check it out below!
