Winter Reminders:

Outside Recess:
Kirbyville district policy is to have outside recess as long as the air temperature (including windchill) is 25 degrees or above. It is important that your child come to school with a warm coat and hat so they can enjoy the fresh air and exercise. If you do not have a coat for your child, please let Ms. Covington, the school counselor, know as we do have some coats that have been donated.

We do not have extra coats for students to borrow. We also do not have supervision for students that are unable to go outside as the teachers are on recess duty as well.

Absences:
Per the student handbook, if your child is absent you need to notify the front office before 9:00 a.m. You can contact the front office by:
*Calling 417.334.2757 (you may leave a message)
*Email kesoffice@kirbyvillebraves.org
*Parent Square - send to Mandy Voss

Mandy or Nurse Colby may ask some follow up questions regarding why your child is absent as we do track illnesses to help stop the spread and it helps to know what we are facing.
