New building, same vibes! The first week of school is always one of our favorite times of the year, and what an incredible first week it has been!
A HUGE thank you to our Executive Director, Mr. Bott, our Regional Superintendent, Dr. Bernardino, and our dynamic Trustee, Dan Micciche, for visiting us on Day 1! Your continued support means so much to our students, staff, and school community. We truly could not have done this work without you!
Now, Week 2 starts tomorrow, and we’re ready to keep building, growing, and showing everyone what Kiest is all about!
