Residency mid-year check-in for Cd'A School District families

In order to make certain all of our students receive appropriate educational support, Coeur d’Alene School District 271 conducts a mid-year residency verification. Residency is defined as where your family sleeps at night. Has your residency changed since September 15, 2022? If yes AND if any of the following statements are true for your family, please contact your school counselor or the Coeur d’Alene School District McKinney-Vento Liaison, James Curb at 208-664-8241 ext. 10061 or jcurb@cdaschools.org for more information about educational services that may be available to your student(s) and family.

From our Counselor: Kindness is our character trait for the month of February.

From our Counselor: Kindness is our character trait for the month of February.

During the month of February, Kindness will be taught and discussed in the counselor lessons. This important trait will also be reinforced in the classrooms and around campus! If you have a chance, have a discussion with your child about ways to show kindness in the community.

At the January Awards Assembly, the 5th Grade Leadership Team will introduce the February character trait, and read the definition of Kindness to the students and staff as follows: Kindness is defined as the quality of being friendly, generous, and considerate. Acts of kindness can make the world a happier place for everyone. Being kind to others can help boost confidence, help others to have self control, and create happiness for others, and yourself!

Have a great day!!
