• KCS and Knox County Public Library (KCPL) are working together to provide KCPL library cards to all KCS students.  As you can imagine, this is no small task, so we need your help. Your students should have received a form this week with KCS and Knox County Public Library on the heading.  Please read the form for information about this program. If you want your child to receive the library card, you don't need to return the form. If you DO NOT want your child to receive the card OR if your child already HAS a KCPL card, please fill out the form and return it to your child's teacher by no later than December 20.  The KCPL card is free to residents of Knox County and provides access to many resources, both print and digital.

• Today is the last day of school before Thanksgiving Break. There is no school November 27-29. We will see students back on Monday, December 2.  
• Plan on attending our annual Craft Fair on Thursday, December 5 from 5:00-7:00 hosted by our hospitality committee!  We will have over 30 local vendors set up just in time for holiday shopping.  
• It's that time of year to empty out the lost and found box. During the week of December 2-6, the contents will be spread out in the main hallway. If your child has been missing a coat please encourage them to look through the items to see if any belong to them. What remains after December 6th will be packaged up for the PTO Clothing Center.
