Welcome Back!!!

We are excited to kick off the 23-24 school year! Classrooms are ready! Backpacks are full with new supplies! And students are eager to see their teachers and friends! Our Kindergarten Orientation, Meet the Teacher Night, and our Back to School Bash were Awesome! It was refreshing to see sooo many smiling faces! Kennerly is blessed to have a wonderful group of teachers and parents who work well together to do what is in the best interest of our students.


Just a couple of reminders....

First View App

In partnership with First Student, Lindbergh Schools uses the FirstView app to communicate bus information with families in real time, including your student’s pickup and drop-off times, and any delays or notifications. For complete details about the app and how to download it visit our website at go.lindberghschools.ws/transportation. You will need your student's State ID to set up your account. The ID number can be found in Infinite Campus. The State ID is right under your student's picture. If you have multiple students, you will need to click on your student’s picture to see the State ID number.

As a district, we will help students learn how to protect their devices. However, we are realistic that accidents happen. To protect families from costly repairs or loss, Lindbergh Schools offers accident and loss protection for our schools’ blended learning devices for students in grades 4-12 who take devices home.
