Can you Help the Library?
We are excited to announce an upcoming reading incentive program for 4th and 5th Grade Remote and Hybrid students, but we need your help! In order to make this program successful, we need multiple copies of the same book. Please consider purchasing one of the books to donate to the library for students to check out. Once the incentive is over, these books will become available to all students. We have attached the Amazon wish list with the copies of the chosen books. Amazon will also ship it right to KST. Thank you for any support you can provide!https://www.amazon.com/hz/

Getting Too Many Canvas Announcements
Each Canvas user can control his/her own notification preferences. This can be done at the account level or at the course level. Adjusting notifications for a course will override notifications at the account level.
- HERE is a guide about changing account level notifications (this should be done before making any changes to a single course's notification settings)

Kaneland Strong No Matter the Distance - Remote Students
Even though we can't see our remote students in person, we still want them to have a presence in our building. They are still a major part of our KST family! Please email me (Samantha.Aversa@kaneland.org) a picture of your child(ren) doing their remote learning or of them waving hi. We would love to display their pictures in the hallways for our teachers and hybrid students to see!! Thank you for their participation!
Please reach out with any questions you may have!
Thank you for all you do!
