Good evening KDBA families!
We return from fall break tomorrow 10/19/26. I hope all of our students have had a restful week off and are ready to dig into quarter two. I have just a few updates to share with you as we start back to school!
Attendance Incentive: We will begin a two part attendance incentive when we return tomorrow. There are short term attendance goals, as well as long term. This is what it will look like for students:
đź’™Short term goals- We will have three week interval goals where ALL students with perfect attendance for those weeks will get a small prize at the end of the period. The first period will be from October 19-November 6 and the prize for perfect attendance these three weeks will be a bag of chips.
đź’™Long term goals- We will also have a larger prize at the end of each quarter. Each week a student has perfect attendance they will get to put their name into a larger drawing for a large prize or experience. At the end of the quarter, there will three names drawn. One student from 5/6 grade, another from 7/8 grade, and the last from 9-12 grade. For our second quarter incentive, winners will get a fast food lunch delivered to them at school! Remember, each week you have perfect attendance, you get another entry into the drawing, so make every effort to be at school every day!
Picture Day(s):
Coming up we have two important picture days.
đź’™ALL KDBA in person students will take pictures on Wednesday October 21st here at school. This is for all students for our yearbook.
đź’™Seniors (those students graduating in the 26-27 school year) will travel to DHS for senior pictures on October 29th.
Please make sure students are on time for these days so they do not miss out on the opportunity.
If you would like to order school pictures, order forms will be available in the office Monday.
As always, if you have questions or concerns please reach out to us at 217-477-0300 between 7:30 and 3:30 every school day!
