A word from the principal
As we begin the second semester, I would like to thank you for your continued support of our efforts to ensure that all Kimball children receive the best that education has to offer. We would NOT be successful without the partnership that we share with all of you.
The second semester is full of academic challenges for the students. State testing seems to dominate the calendar and preparation for the tests is ongoing. Please continue to check the website as well as the school marquee for testing information. Testing sometimes varies according to grade level and program/subject. Often times, our children participate in state required field tests where schedules are not advertised.
I consider it a privilege to have the opportunity to work with you and your child/children. Please feel free to contact me or call me if you have questions or concerns regarding the spring testing requirements.
