GET SCANNED
Parents, if you haven’t visited your student’s school yet this school year and had your driver’s license scanned, this is a reminder that you’ll need to do so if you plan to be in the building while school is in session. Licenses scanned in previous years did not carry over and must be scanned again.

 

If possible, visit the school office to have your driver’s license scanned before the date you’ll be volunteering–especially if that date will be Oct. 31, when many parents volunteer and license scanning lines may be long.


When leaving the building, be sure to sign out and exit ONLY through the main office doors by which you entered originally.


PICTURES TELL OUR STORY
Each KCSD96 school has a Photo Gallery linked from that school’s home page. At kcsd96.org, locate the drop-down menu labeled “Schools” at the top of the page. Select the school your student attends. Next, find the Photo Gallery for that school by scrolling down below the large photo on that school’s home page. On the Parent tab under the heading “I want to...,” click “View Photo Galleries.” Check back periodically–we'll continue to make additions to Photo Galleries throughout the school year. Questions about navigating our website? Please contact the public information coordinator.


KEEP US POSTED
if your child will be absent or arriving late to school, be sure to call the school office before or within the first hour of regular attendance time and inform the staff. If the office is not open, leave a voice mail message. Please speak clearly and include your student’s first and last name, homeroom teacher, and your follow-up phone number.
