Kelly Creek Community School
January 24th - 28th, 2022
Hello to all our KCCS Families,
We are trying something new with our "Week at a Glance for Families". We felt it needed a bit of a facelift. We will try this new format for a while and are hoping you will give Mr. Burt any feedback you may have.
We are celebrating Literacy Week at school from Jan. 24th - Jan. 28th. Literacy, and reading in particular, has been a major focus for our students this year. Our teachers and literacy support team met last week to go over the progress our students are making with reading so far this year. We are very proud of them! We have set some targets for them to reach by the end of the year. It is amazing to see the growth in our students and the confidence that comes along with that!
Here are two links that families may want to check out for ideas on how to celebrate Literacy Week at home:

Our other big news related to 'literacy' is that we will be starting our "One School, One Book" project on Monday January 31st. More information and details will be sent out to families next week!
If you have any questions or comments, please do not hesitate to contact us.
Sincerely,
Jamie Burt
Principal
