Weekly News from Kimball Hill

Message from the Principal
Dear Kimball Hill Parents & Guardians,
Thank you to all of the families that supported our first Dine & Share at Chipotle. PTA is pleased to announce that we made $272.35. We greatly appreciate your support!
Looking ahead is Veteran's Day on November 11th. It is a Kimball Hill tradition every year to honor and celebrate our Veteran family members. On behalf of us all, we would like to thank all of our Veterans; both past and present for all that you sacrificed for our freedom. Our students will be engaged in class activities and 4th grade will be participating in a small performance that will be shared with parents virtually. Thank you.
November 20th will be designated as Pajama Day for all in-person and virtual students. Our students earned this school-wide celebration for meeting our monthly behavioral goal. Our students have been exhibiting outstanding behavior. We are so proud of them!
As always, please reach out to me any time with questions or concerns at lacamerm@ccsd15.net or call the school at 847-963-5200.
Warmly,
Michelle LaCamera
