Monday, January 13, 2020, 7 p.m., Kent Library

KSPTA is hosting a moderated panel discussion for the community to learn more about the COM Maintenance and Operations Facility (including a waste management facility) currently being built next to Kent.

Community members have raised serious concerns about potential impacts on Kent students and staff.

Panelists will include representatives from COM, Kentfield Creeks and Kids, Marin County Office of Education, Friends of the Corte Madera Creek, and the Kentfield Planning Advisory Board.

Bacich Garden Volunteers

We are looking for a team of parents to help staff the garden during lunch recess on Tuesdays (1st/3rd) and Thursdays (2nd/4th) from 12:30-1:30 p.m.

We are blessed with a beautiful garden space at Bacich, but currently the only time the garden is able to be open at lunch recess is on Mondays during Garden Club. More than one adult is needed to supervise the garden, and because staff supervises other areas at that time, parent volunteers working alongside staff is the only way the school can safely open the garden for free play.

Thank you for considering volunteering. Sign up link: https://www.signupgenius.com/go/bacichgardenplayvolunteers
