Highlights from Owl News...

Volunteers Needed!​

Starting in January, we will need lunch volunteers to help on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 11-12. If you can help for even just part of that time, please contact Carol White. 

Stomach Virus

There has been a stomach bug going around TKS. Please make sure your children are washing hands regularly. Also, If children complain of feeling sick in the morning, then please try to keep them home instead of sending them to school. This virus has been quite contagious this week among students and teachers.

We are almost at 100%​

We only have 15 families left to make it to 100% pledged to our Annual Fund. We only have 3 families left to make 100% in K-6th grade and 12 families left in PreK. Please don't forget to make your pledge before the end of this year. You may postpone payment until April and May just contact Rhonda Heatly. Any amount counts, it helps the school to say we have 100% participation in our Annual Fund when applying for various grants.

Winter Book Fair Still Open Online

As you know our book fair kicked off this week and we're happy to report we've sold $4,300 in items thus far! Our goal for this year is $6,500 so we have $2,200 left to go! Here's how you can help:
  • SHARE. Share a link to the online book fair with friends and family, letting them know they can do their online shopping and help The Kessler School at the same time!
  •  GIFT. If you still have gifts to get, please consider buying them online! Our online store is open until December 24th, but be advised that deliveries will come to the school in January.
  • DONATE. There are so many local charities that need books and our online book fair is just the place to get them:
    THE TKS LIBRARY: SCHOOL WISH LIST
    THE NORTH OAK CLIFF LIBRARY
The physical book fair store closed this morning, so let's hit our goal with online sales! Thanks for all of your support this week. The biggest thank you goes to Shell Wamsley, Book Fair Chair, for organizing and amazing sale!

Please ALWAYS encourage your children to read, especially when we have long breaks from school (like the holidays coming up). Many of you bought beautiful books for your children at the Book Fair.
