We have had an increase in the number of students using verbal threats or physical aggression. While the threats have turned out to be empty threats, thus far, made in the heat of the moment, it is not acceptable.
We have found resources appropriate to educate each grade level, but we need our parents' support before we address our students. Please come to a meeting at 6 p.m. on May 8 in the Conference Room at KES to discuss this critical but very sensitive subject. RSVP by text to Jill Zeigler 304-692-9716. Please include your first and last name and the name of your child.
