A few friendly reminders:
- On Friday's, your child will receive his/her R-CHART (Responsibility Chart)! This chart will notify you of any late and/or missing assignments. Please carefully read the information at the top of the sheet explaining the chart! R-Charts are to be returned (with a parent signature) and any missing work on Mondays! These charts will keep you informed about your child's work habits and give you the opportunity to praise your child and/or encourage him/her to be responsible toward schoolwork!
- Be sure to go over the papers in your child's Friday Folder each week, take out the papers that stay at home/return necessary papers then sign the inside cover to let us know that you saw it! Friday Folders are due back on Mondays! :-)
- Please sign your child's agenda each night. We are trying to get students in the good habit of talking with you about assignments, etc.

The school they type in for the login is: Kenowa Hills SD
The student login and password is the same as the one used at school with 5th grade using kenowa12 as the password.
Students have worked hard this year and would love to see them retain those skills this summer. ;-) - ALL FAMILIES - please do the online info update on your student(s) at https://infoupdate.khps.org/. Your username and password were mailed home over spring break. Please call our office if you need assistance retrieving your password.
- Our attendance policy is HERE. After 10 absences, your child needs a doctor’s note to excuse any additional absences. Students not at a doctor’s/dentist appointment and are more than an hour late (or leave an hour early) are charged with a .5 absence. The goal is that all students are here from 8:35-3:35. Thank you!
