Decisions made at the state and national levels impact our schools, and it’s important that our voices are heard. As superintendent, I advocate for our students and staff in regional, state, and national conversations. Earlier this week, I met with federal legislators about Impact Aid. This important funding source compensates our district for the loss of local tax dollars from tax exempt federal property.

 

I also serve on several education leadership boards to ensure policies and funding decisions support public schools like ours. Advocacy is a team effort, and I’m proud to represent CK Schools in these spaces! 

March is Women’s History Month, and we are proud to join the nation in recognizing the achievements, leadership, and impact of women who have shaped our world in countless ways. Their efforts have not only influenced history but continue to inspire future generations.

We love welcoming back former students as general laborers on our summer crew! If you know a recent grad looking for a fun, well-paying, and rewarding summer job, please let them know we’re hiring. It’s a fantastic way to gain experience, stay connected with the community, and enjoy some sunny days outdoors. Encourage them to apply now from our website and be a part of our amazing team!

First semester report cards are available through PowerSchool Parent Access. To access your student's report card, log in to PowerSchool and click the "Student Reports" link for a printable report.
