Kingston Community School District

🎃🕸️ Happy Halloween from Kingston Community Schools! 🕸️🎃 Since our GSRP preschool students don’t attend school on Fridays, they won’t be here for our annual Halloween parade this afternoon. To make sure they still got in on the spooky fun, our preschoolers went trick-or-treating around the building on Thursday! 🍬👻 They visited classrooms, the cafeteria, and the office, spreading smiles and collecting plenty of candy along the way! It was such a treat seeing them all dressed up in their Halloween costumes. We hope they had a fang-tastic time! 🧡🖤 We can’t wait to see everyone else at our annual Halloween parade today (Friday) at 2 PM! Don’t miss the fun! It’s sure to be a boo-tiful celebration! 🎉🧙‍♀️🕷️ Happy Halloween, everyone! 🎃👻

🌟 Playground Refresh Complete! 🌟 Our KES playground was long overdue for a fresh layer of mulch around our play structures, and this week we got it done! 🛝💪 After the new mulch was delivered, our amazing maintenance crew tackled “Mulch Mountain,” scooping and spreading load after load with a skid steer 🚜. Then, our varsity football players and coaches came over after practice to help spread the mulch into all the smaller spaces, making sure our playground is safe, soft, and ready for our students to enjoy! 🙌🏽❤️ We’re so thankful to live in a community where so many helping hands come together to make big projects like this possible. 💫 Thank you to everyone involved for your teamwork, muscle, and community spirit! 🏫

In recognition of Hunger and Homelessness Awareness Month this November, Kingston Schools is partnering with HDC to provide meal kits and launch a blessing food box for our Kingston community. Any excess food donations will be donated to support homeless families in neighboring communities.

Together, we can make a difference by helping ensure no family goes hungry this season. Please see the flyer below for details on how you can contribute!

5th Grade Coders to the Rescue! Fifth grade students in Mrs. Pomaville's STEAM class took on a zombie 🧟‍♀️ apocalypse — with Ozobots as their survivors! Using coding skills, teamwork, tiny robots and creative problem-solving, they programmed their bots to navigate obstacles and escape the undead. 🧠⚙️ Students were also collaborating to complete a virtual pixel art puzzle. 🧩
