Dear Kit Carson Families,

Thank you for bringing your students to school on time every day! The teachers have

been very busy collecting data to help drive our instruction. Currently we are very low in math

and reading. Our data is showing we are lower in reading than math. Parents you can help by

reading to your child or having them read to you nightly. To help with math, have your child

add up the groceries you are buying at the store. You could ask your child how much they think

it will cost to buy X, Y, Z. Any real world application you can do with your child will help.

We have a couple of changes this year in staff. Mr. Hoover, our technology

teacher/stem teacher has moved to a new job at City Center. We wish him well. We would like

to welcome Gabrielle Aragon who is our new IGS I EA. Veronica Hernandez, is our new IGS 2 EA.

We also have Daniela Chavira, kinder EA who started new this year.

IMPORTANT PROCEDURES FOR PICK UP/ DROP OFF

WE HAVE HAD A LOT OF COMPLANTS ABOUT PICK UP AND DROP OFF. I would first like to

thank the families who have been patient with the traffic and who are complying with our procedures

for pick up and drop off. The procedure currently are as is:

 Kinder, Pre-K and IGS I & II are dropped off in the AM at the staff parking area.

 Pre-K and IGS I & II are picked up at the staff parking.

 Students in kinder, 1 st , 2 nd , 3 rd , 4 th , & 5 th are to be picked up at the roundabout or the parent

parking area. Families are not allowed to pick up your children by the trees in the staff parking

area. I appreciate you all following our procedures, safety is key for all our students at Kit

Carson.

 Reminder to have a nametag placed on your dashboard with your child’s name and teacher so

we can load quicker. Also, if using the roundabout do not leave large gaps between cars.

Reminder: Dismissal is at 2:00 Please pick up your child no later than 2:00. I do not have duty people

to watch your child after 2:00.
