Box Tops for Education - Tried the new app?

Have you given the Box Tops for Education App a try?  It is certainly different than the previous clipping of Box Tops.  In some ways it makes it easier, scan your receipt right away, nothing to cut, no box tops laying on your counter or in your drawers.  However, in other ways it makes it more difficult, remembering to or taking the time to "scan" the receipt.  

One thing that’s great about the app is that since you don’t have to hand in the Box Tops personally, the school you support could be anywhere in the country. This means grandparents and other family members who might live far away can easily help the schools of the kids they love. If you haven't done so yet, remind grandparents or other family members that they can also download the app and have their box top scanned receipts qualify for Electa Quinney.  

Not sure how to use the app?  Not sure if you are scanning correctly?  Check out one of the videos below or pass the links on to family...

Reminder:  February Calendar Change

Feb. 17th NO School;  Feb. 21st is a School Day

At the September 23, 2019 meeting, the KASD Board of Education approved a change to the 2019-2020 parent calendar, moving a staff professional development day (a no-school day for students) from Friday, February 21, 2020 to Monday, February 17, 2020. The move will allow certified staff members and administration the opportunity to attend a regional professional development offering with nearly 3,000 other educators from more than 20 districts throughout Wisconsin.

You can find the revised printable parent calendar here: http://www.kaukauna.k12.wi.us/district/parent-calendar.pdf

We recognize that a calendar change during the in-progress school year is unusual and we appreciate your flexibility and understanding.

Community Events and Activity Flyers

There are a great many worthy undertakings in the Kaukauna Area School District that understandably deserve public support. The Board of Education/School District assist with this process in providing notice to students and/or families of certain non-school-related community activities/programs that are for public school-age students (that apply and meet policy conditions). Click here or visit the school district website to view the up to date list of events and flyers.

KASD Launches District App

KASD is excited to announce that we have launched a new district app, available in both the Apple App and Google Play stores. The app enables parents, students, and staff the ability to stay connected and informed about what’s happening at Kaukauna Area School District. 

KASD's app is free, and provides parents with quick access to everything school-related including calendars, directions to events, contact information for teachers and administrators, important documents, cafeteria menus, and more.
