Kuna Schools Update: One Step at a Time: Navigating Transitions Together

Dear KSD Families,

It’s hard to believe we’re already halfway through the school year! Our theme, One Step at a Time, feels especially meaningful as we balance the learning happening in classrooms today with planning for what’s ahead.

#FutureReady: Looking Ahead

This past Saturday, our seniors hosted their second Kinder–Senior Handoff Event during the Varsity Basketball game (photo)—a great reminder of how important transitions are for students and families.

In the coming weeks, several key transition activities will take place. Fifth graders will begin learning about their middle school options, eighth graders will continue exploring high school pathways and making important choices, and in February we’ll start registering next year’s kindergartners.

Thanks to advocacy from our Superintendent Advisory Council, we’ve expanded opportunities to help families navigate these transition years. Together, we’ve created Parent Universities and events designed to support families as students move from one stage to the next.

Please mark your calendars for these upcoming events:

We value our partnership with you and appreciate walking alongside your family through each step. Together, we can help every student feel supported, confident, and ready for what’s next.
