welcome back

August 14, 2025

Dear Kenwood Families,

Happy Friday! We want to extend a warm welcome back and express our gratitude for a fantastic opening day for our 1st through 5th grade students. Our building was brimming with enthusiasm, the start of new friendships, and that special energy that accompanies a fresh beginning. It was a pleasure to welcome our students back.

Today, we are excited to greet the first group of Kindergarteners, with the remaining half of the class set to join us on Monday!

Thank you for allowing us the privilege of working with your children daily. This partnership between our families and the school is vital, and we appreciate your ongoing support as we embark on another productive year. Here is to the year ahead full of growth, discovery, and wonderful new memories!

Back to School Bash, Tuesday, Aug 18th, 5:30 - 7:00pm

We look forward to our rescheduled Back to School Bash at Kenwood on Tuesday, August 18th. We plan to have Domino’s pizza, DJ Fireproof and inflatables along with Kona Ice for purchase. We’ll see you there! 

Parent Drop Off on Tuesday, August 18th

As we begin our 2nd week of school, parents will be asked to let students enter the building independently on their own as they know the locations of their classroom and the breakfast room. As teachers are settling into teaching their lessons, every minute counts. It can be difficult for teachers to begin lessons while answering questions or checking in with parents that could be answered through a preferred method of communication with your child’s teacher. If you have treats or We also want to ensure the safety and security of our building. Thanks for your cooperation and understanding.

Same-Day Transportation Changes and Early Check-Outs:

Any same-day transportation changes for your child must be called in to the Kenwood Office before 1:00 p.m.  This allows time to communicate the message so that all parties can communicate the correct dismissal location.  We respectfully ask parents to keep early check-outs for appointments to a minimum as they cause disruptions to learning.

Upon dismissal, students will exit the building.  Parents may pick up their child at that time.  Please do not enter the building before the bell rings unless you’ve notified the office with a valid reason for doing so.

Kenwood Parent Handbook

Please take a moment to review our Kenwood Parent Handbook. If you have any questions please feel free to reach out to your child’s classroom teacher or the office.

Sincerely,

Dr. Nadrozny

Principal
