Keith Elementary is one of the schools recommended to be impacted by the attendance boundary changes. The district is asking for feedback regarding the re-zoning recommendations. You can review the recommendations and provide feedback by going to the district website and clicking on the “Parents & Students” tab and then clicking on the “Learn more about attendance boundary options” link in the turquoise boundary banner.

Prepare your Kids for the Holiday Season
Holidays can be an emotional roller coaster for our children. They are excited about presents and vacations, but they may also feel anxious about being around large crowds, traveling, or having their routine turned upside down.
One way to support them during this time is to use a family calendar to help them adjust to the changing schedule. Children feel much more comfortable when they can visually see upcoming changes to their routines. Try to keep bedtime and your routine as normal as you can, when possible.
Set expectations for your children at holiday get-togethers. Review the expectations for your child’s behavior when preparing for a family gathering. Practice using manners and greeting family members before the event. Remind your child of the rules of where they are allowed to play and what they can play with. It helps to have a “kid area” with age-appropriate toys for the children. It can also help bring familiar healthy foods for your child to eat at family events.
Adding some familiar favorites to their plate may help your child feel more comfortable trying new dishes.
May you make many wonderful family memories this holiday season!
