KSD Highlights

Dear KSD Community,

Today marks our first official day of spring! A time to welcome a season full of hope, joy, and positive growth as we reflect on all that we have to celebrate and honor at this time of year.

At our Principal chats/coffees this month our administrative teams focused on two key areas of interest for our KSD students - Engaging all Learners and Community Connections. Our sites shared strategies they have employed over the course of this year to support student learning and addressed ways we are cultivating a sense of inclusivity, safety, and belonging at our sites.

During the month of February our students, staff, and parents/guardians engaged in the YouthTruth survey to help further inform us about these areas by responding to questions relating to engagement, relationships, culture, academic challenge, belonging, and instructional methods. At our April 4th Regular Meeting of the Board of Trustees a YouthTruth representative will join us to share the KSD’s survey results and how we may want to proceed with the feedback.

Take good care,

Superintendent Signature

Important Medi-Cal Information

State Launches Campaign to Help Californians Keep Medi-Cal Coverage

Starting in April, California will have 14 months to resume normal renewal processes for all Medi-Cal enrollees. The Department of Health Care Services has launched a statewide campaign with a new landing page, www.dhcs.ca.gov/pages/keep-your-medi-cal.aspx.

Enrollees who have moved or changed their phone number or email since 2020 need to update their contact information with Medi-Cal so they don’t miss alerts or notices about their renewal. Medi-Cal beneficiaries should update their information today by contacting Marin HHS Public Assistance at: 1-877-410-8817 or visit www.benefitscal.com.

Dear Bacich Community,

Thank you to those who attended the Bacich Principal Chat this morning. We had a productive conversation about several important topics. I appreciate your input and dedication to our school and community.

Bacich Readathon - Wednesday, March 23, 2023

We are excited for a day of reading activities and a celebration of reading during the Bacich Readathon this Wednesday. We will have a school-wide stuffy and pajama day. Students are encouraged, but not required, to wear pajamas to school on Wednesday. There will be guest authors, local celebrity readers, and reading-themed classroom activities. The visiting authors include Matt de la Pena, Axel Maisy, Ariana and Christina Amini, and Sabrina Moyle.

We also have a bookmark making contest and will select student winners at each grade level. There is a classroom contest for the classroom that has the highest percentage of students who have received at least one donation. The winning classroom will get a small prize from the KSPTA Readathon Committee. Please visit the donation website or the main readathon page for more information. Thank you to the KSPTA for coordinating this event and bringing some incredible authors to our school.

Ross Valley Little League and Kentfield Girls Softball Opening Day

I had the pleasure of attending the Ross Valley Little League (RVLL) and Kentfield Girls Softball (KGS) opening day parade and ceremony. It was a joy to see so many families in attendance to kick off the baseball and softball seasons. Seeing the athletes in their uniforms with smiles on their faces is a reminder of the importance of play.

A group of Bacich fourth graders were on hand to sing the national anthem under the direction of music teacher, Becky Poon and they were fantastic.

The baseball construction project is nearly complete and it will be nice to see our students practicing and playing games throughout the spring at Bacich. I appreciate the partnership between these community organizations and the KSD. It is through partnerships such as these that help our community thrive.

I hope you enjoy a fantastic week ahead.

With gratitude,

Kent Falcons News

Kent Principal Grant Althouse

Dear Kent Middle School Families,

Today marks the start of the third and final trimester of the 2022-2023 school year! Students explored new enrichment classes on their schedule, while we all considered personal and academic goals to accomplish over this final portion of the school year. Teachers are working to capture student progress achieved with essential learning targets during the second trimester, and look forward to sharing this information on your child’s second-trimester report card, available to families in Aeries on Friday, March 31.

Kent Readathon - This week we participate in the second annual Readathon week at Kent Middle School! Special activities for the week include daily reading time following study session, an author visit by world-renowned author Matt de la Peña on Wednesday, and lunchtime activities happening in the Kent Library each day of the week. This morning we celebrated the Peregrine House with a donut hole party at recess to honor their highest donation participation rate. Which Kent house will we honor next Monday?! Please visit the donation website or the main readathon page for more information on how to sponsor your child or another Kent student, in support of our KSPTA!

Open House at Kent - Please mark your calendars for the Kent Middle School Open House event next Thursday, March 30 from 6 to 7:30 p.m. in our Kent classrooms. Open House at Kent is a tour of our school for our families, provided by your Kent student. The objective of Open House is for families to experience "a day in the life" of a Kent student, and student work and assignments on display in classrooms will reflect the typical learning experiences presented across our school daily. Your child will be your tour guide, charged with taking you on a self-paced tour of their school day and sharing essential learnings and typical activities from each of their classes. We ask that you set the expectation that your children stay with you for the duration of the Open House event, as we do not have adequate supervision for unstructured play outside, which can also present noise distractions in classrooms. We are excited to welcome students and parents on campus to experience the purposeful learning experiences that our students engage in daily!

The Lion King

The Lion King Performances - Our student actors and crew are hard at work preparing our spring musical The Lion King, and are looking forward to four performances of the show the week of April 3! Kent students will enjoy two school-day performances of the show on Thursday, April 6. There will be two evening performances available for students and families in our community to attend. Each event is free, however, due to limited capacity in the Kent MP Room we are requesting that families use the Eventbrite links below to reserve seats for the musical. It is certain to be a phenomenal show!

Let’s have a great first week of the third trimester, Falcons!
