KCS News Details
Kennebunkport Consolidated School ~ Tel-u-Gram for Friday, September 30th, 2022
Dear KCS Families,
From our Allied Arts Team: “Thanks to the generous support of the Education Foundation of the Kennebunks and Arundel, KCS is about to install a new garden! The 3 large raised beds, along with a grape arbor, will be placed in the front of the school, creating a border for our picnic table and Moose area. We plan to do the hardscaping before the ground freezes this Fall, and the planting when the ground thaws this Spring. Our goal over the next few years is to build a School Garden that is an integrative part of our K-5 Learning. Stay tuned for more information in the coming weeks about this exciting school-wide project!”
RSU 21 will be collaborating with Northern Lights Healthcare to offer student influenza clinics in each of our schools. The flu clinic for Kennebunkport Consolidated School will be held on Wednesday, November 2nd.
If you are interested in having your child receive the flu vaccine at our upcoming flu clinic, you must complete the steps below:
-
Complete the RSU 21 Flu Clinic Pre-Registration Form
-
Complete the KCS Vaccine Consent Form (this form is specific to KCS only)
-
Print and return the completed consent form to school
Please refer to the 2022 RSU 21 Student Influenza Clinic Flyer for more information on clinic dates and consent forms for all of our student flu clinics happening throughout the district.
Warm Regards,
Karen Bubar, Principal

THE KCPTA is happy to once again offer a printed Kennebunkport Consolidated School Student Directory (aka “Green Book”) for the 2022-2023 school year. We find it is a great resource to contact friends (new and old!) for play dates/birthday parties, etc. Click here for more information and to submit your directory information for this purpose. The deadline for the form has been extended to… Friday, October 7th.
As an FYI to caregivers, we have new teacher leaders for KCS who are my “go-to” for administrative tasks and decisions when I am out or not available. Kristin Roper and Christina DeFilipp will be sharing these responsibilities. We wanted to share this information with you, in case you are wondering why they may be taking on additional tasks beyond their regular teaching responsibilities (such as running Friday Morning Meeting when I’m out).
