Dear Friends, As the school year comes to a close, I want to take the opportunity to thank each of you for your caring support and participation in the process of moving our school district from Good to Great. This month our Strategic Planning Committee comprised of twenty community leaders will meet with our Administrators and Board of Education. Together the committee will develop a plan that will help navigate our district through tough economic times while providing the very best education for our students. The decisions made during these upcoming months will be difficult ones. Although we are faced with a growing deficit, I am confident if we continue to work together we will triumph. In order to best inform families of the state of our schools, I have developed a new communication tool titled A Letter from the Superintendent. Attached below is the June issue recently mailed to all families enrolled in KHPS. Next year the letters will be sent out 3 times (tri-annually) in effort to communicate important issues associated with our district. If you would like to receive the tri-annual Letter from the Superintendent, and do not have students enrolled in our district, contact Amy Moore amoore Thank you again for your continued support - I wish everyone a safe and relaxing summer. Sincerely, |

Good-Bye Mr. Papke! Mr. Gary Papke, former principal of Marne Elementary is retiring after 35 years in education. Gary served Kenowa Hills as principal of both Marne and Fairview elementary schools from 1990-2008. Gary left Fairview in 2008, but stayed on for one final year as an administrator of Marne Elementary until the end of this school year. Mr. Papke has dedicated his life to the teaching and learning of children. "Possibly the most wonderful aspect of this experience is that I can very honestly say that if I had it to do all over again, I would choose the same career path and experiences again" said Mr. Papke. Thank you Gary for all your dedication and enthusiasm - we will miss you! |
