KAES will continue to offer virtual learning through Feb. 4, 2022. If your child is sick at home or home out of caution and seeks to avoid contact with other people, virtual learning will be available. If you plan to be virtual you will need to be virtual the whole week and must fill out this KAES Virtual Registration form. It will help us keep track of students better.
Face to Face Educaton Feb. 10, 2022
We have been very blessed with low case numbers of positive tested students and have seen a continued precipitous drop in cases in our local community since Jan 17. We are happy to announce that all students will be moving back to face to face education starting Feb. 10. Masks will be recommended but not required. I thank each one of our families for your continued monitoring of your members for signs of symptoms and for exercising caution for everyone's safety. This only works as well as we work together.
