Our December Principal’s Coffee: A Complete Success!

At Kemp Mill Elementary School, we believe in fostering a strong partnership between parents, students, and staff. To promote open communication and address important school-related topics, we organize monthly Principal’s Coffees. Our most recent gathering in December was a resounding success, with both in-person and virtual attendees coming together to discuss crucial matters such as student attendance, pick up and drop off rules, and how to become a Kemp Mill volunteer. Our motto for the event was “Juntos Podemos, Together We Can!”

The Importance of Student Attendance

One of the key topics discussed during the December Principal’s Coffee was the significance of student attendance. We emphasized the direct correlation between regular attendance and academic success. Research has consistently shown that students who attend school regularly are more likely to achieve higher grades and develop important social skills. A strong attendance record lays the foundation for future success and helps students build discipline and responsibility.

During the session, we shared strategies and tips for parents to encourage regular attendance, such as establishing a consistent morning routine, setting clear expectations around attendance, and reinforcing the importance of education. We also highlighted the various support systems available at Kemp Mill Elementary School to assist families in overcoming barriers to attendance, such as transportation issues or health concerns.

Pick Up & Drop Off Rules

Ensuring the safety of our students is always a top priority at Kemp Mill Elementary School. Therefore, we devoted a significant portion of the Principal’s Coffee to discussing pick up and drop off rules. We reviewed the existing guidelines and procedures in place to facilitate a smooth and secure process for both parents and students.

Attendees were provided with a detailed overview of the designated pick-up and drop-off zones, as well as the importance of following traffic flow directions to prevent congestion and potential accidents. We also reminded parents about the importance of displaying their carpool tags prominently for identification purposes. By adhering to these guidelines, we can create a safe and efficient environment for all students and families during arrival and dismissal times.

Becoming a Kemp Mill Volunteer

At Kemp Mill Elementary School, we greatly value the contributions of our dedicated volunteers. Volunteers play a vital role in supporting various school activities and enhancing the overall educational experience for our students. During the Principal’s Coffee, we encouraged parents and community members to consider becoming a Kemp Mill volunteer.

We discussed the different volunteer opportunities available, ranging from assisting in the classroom to organizing fundraising events. By volunteering, parents can actively participate in their child’s education and develop a stronger connection with the school community. We provided information on the necessary steps to become a volunteer, including the required background checks and the process for signing up for specific volunteer roles.

Juntos Podemos, Together We Can!

The theme of our December Principal’s Coffee, “Juntos Podemos, Together We Can!” encapsulated our belief in the power of collaboration and unity. By coming together as a community, we can achieve great things for our students. The event served as a platform for parents to engage with school staff, ask questions, and voice any concerns they may have. Through open and transparent communication, we fostered a sense of shared responsibility and commitment towards our students’ success.

In conclusion, the December Principal’s Coffee at Kemp Mill Elementary School was a resounding success. By discussing important topics such as student attendance, pick up and drop off rules, and the significance of volunteering, we empowered parents and community members to actively participate in their child’s education. Our commitment to “Juntos Podemos, Together We Can!” ensures that we continue to create a supportive and nurturing environment for all of our students.
