December 12, 2025: Principal's Note

ELF STORE – DEC. 15 -19 
The Elf Store will be open December 15–19 in the library! Students can shop for gifts during recess and after school. You can set up your child’s e-wallet for easier shopping, with items available at every price point.

TWILIGHT WITH SANTA – DEC. 18 
Mark your calendars for Twilight with Santa on December 18th from 5:30 to 8:00 pm! Enjoy breakfast for dinner, crafts, cozy storytime, photos with Santa, and even snow every 30 minutes. Purchase your breakfast plates here!

HOLIDAY SING ALONG – DEC. 18 
Our students will be spreading holiday cheer with a school-wide sing-along on December 18th from 1:00 to 2:00 pm in the cafeteria. Each grade level will perform songs for the school. We welcome families to join us, space permitting!

THANK YOU FOR SUPPORTING OUR GIVING TREE! – GIFTS DUE DEC. 19
All of our Giving Tree tags have been taken! We are so grateful to everyone supporting our students; your generosity and kindness truly make a difference. As a reminder, please return gifts wrapped to the front office by December 19. Thank you for helping make this season special!

MISSING SCHOOL? LET US KNOW! 
If your student will be missing school around the holidays, please contact the office so we can arrange Independent Study. This helps us support their learning while they’re away. Thank you for helping us keep students on track!

EARLY DISMISSAL DAY – DEC.  19 
Students will be dismissed at 12:30 pm on Friday, December 19th. Winter break begins Dec. 22 until Jan. 2. 

LOST & READY TO BE FOUND! 
Our lost and found is hanging out on the fence by pick-up and drop-off. Please swing by before break to claim any of your students' missing items. 

SAFE SNACKS AND CLASSROOM CELEBRATIONS 
To help us follow State guidelines and our school wellness policy, we’re shifting away from high-sugar treats like cupcakes, candy, and pizza for classroom celebrations. These rules help keep our meal program in good standing and support a healthier learning environment for all students.

We truly appreciate your understanding and support as we work together to make celebrations fun and healthy. Thank you for considering healthier alternatives when sending snacks for birthdays or special events!

FREE SOCIAL MEDIA SAFETY WORKSHOPS 
The Polly Klaas Foundation is offering free workshops to help keep our teens safe online and in the real world. Topics include the real consequences of sexting and sex trafficking, the dangers of running away, and how to spot red flags in online behavior. Workshops include childcare, free dinner, and are open to all families. The first workshop will be on Jan. 8, 2026, so save the date! Learn more and RSVP here.

If you have questions, please contact your student’s teacher or reach out to me at (707) 277-6050 or tperkins@kvusd.org.

Thank you!
