Our First Week in Pictures!!

We had a fabulous first week full of new friendships and collaboration. We know the kids have come home with many stories, but here are some visuals for you to enjoy!

Have a wonderful, restful weekend. We have asked the kiddos to share their Climbing Guide with you. Carving time to spend talking about their work together in class will be so important to building the connection between school and home. Please sign somewhere on the last entry as well as their agenda for Friday.

The Kiker administration team has asked that all visitors to the Kiker campus are prepared to always show a driver's license as you check in through the office. Thanks for remembering this!

We are so excited for the weeks to come!
