Welcome back! I hope your family had a great first day of school. It’s always a joy to see the excitement on students’ faces as they walk through the doors, greet their teachers, and reconnect with friends.

We’ve been capturing first-day moments across the district, and we’d love to share them with you! Watch our Facebook page for photos!

Here’s to a wonderful school year ahead!

We're using ParentSquare to communicate with families. New families should receive an invitation email or text with a link to activate your ParentSquare account. Please contact your child's school if you did not receive the link or your child doesn't appear in your account.

Once you have logged in to ParentSquare, you can change your notification preferences for phone, text, and email.

All students must be up to date on state required vaccinations or have an exemption form on file in order to attend school. Please submit any needed documents to your school office. Students entering 7th grade and kindergarten are often due for boosters. Visit the DOH Immunizations Information for Families.

Visit the Health Services website and download the latest forms needed under the Medical Authorization Forms for your child to take medications at school. We can’t have the medication at school without it!

Looking for a way to engage your little ones in learning AND fun? Join us for Play & Learn: playdates led by our amazing pre-kindergarten teachers! These playdates are for children from birth to age 5 and their caregivers at no cost. Playdates begin on October 9.

Starting this month, a 4.5% convenience fee will be added to card payments made to CK Schools. This charge will help cover the rising expense of credit card processing fees and terminal licensing fees. You may still pay by cash or check without incurring any fees.

Notices of parent and student rights and other notifications, including rights under the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act and the Protection of Pupil Rights Amendment, are regularly updated and provided annually.
