📚✨Every Day Counts, Every Student Matters!✨📚

Showing up to school every day is more than just attendance—it's about building a brighter future! 🌟 Every day in the classroom is an opportunity to learn, grow, build friendships, and achieve success.

When students miss school, they miss valuable learning experiences that can make a big difference. 💙

🎒Be Present. Stay Engaged. Make Every Day Count!

📚✨¡Cada día cuenta, cada estudiante importa!✨📚

Asistir a la escuela todos los días es más que solo estar presente: ¡se trata de construir un futuro mejor! 🌟 Cada día en el salón de clases es una oportunidad para aprender, crecer, forjar amistades y alcanzar el éxito.

Cuando los estudiantes faltan a la escuela, se pierden valiosas experiencias de aprendizaje que pueden marcar una gran diferencia. 💙

🎒Asiste a clases. Mantente activo. ¡Haz que cada día cuente!

🎉 National Principals Month Spotlight: Ms. Bethanie Primeaux

Today, we are celebrating Kissam Intermediate Principal Bethanie Primeaux—a leader who makes relationships with students a priority throughout each school day.

“Ms. Primeaux models building relationships with students on our campus effortlessly,” said Kellye Arroyo, Kissam STEAAM teacher. “She has handshakes with multiple students, takes the time to listen to them and is present in the hallways, classrooms and lunchroom. She even laughs at their jokes—the corny ones, too! Our students look forward to seeing her.”

A few fun facts about Ms. Primeaux: Her hidden talent is refinishing and repurposing furniture, which was once her side hustle! When she is away from school, you can find her near the water—preferably at the beach, but the lake works, too. Her go-to source of energy is a Peach Monster!

Thank you, Ms. Primeaux, for making Kissam a place where students feel seen, heard and valued. 💙💛

🎉 Destacada del Mes Nacional de los Directores: la Sra. Bethanie Primeaux

Hoy celebramos a la directora de la escuela intermedia Kissam, Bethanie Primeaux, una líder que hace de las relaciones con los alumnos una prioridad a lo largo de cada jornada escolar.

“La Sra. Primeaux es un ejemplo de cómo forjar relaciones con los alumnos en nuestro campus con total naturalidad”, dijo Kellye Arroyo, maestra de STEAAM en Kissam. “Saluda con un apretón de manos a muchos alumnos, se toma el tiempo para escucharlos y está presente en los pasillos, las aulas y el comedor. ¡Incluso se ríe de sus chistes, incluso de los más cursis! Nuestros alumnos esperan con ansias verla”.

Algunos datos curiosos sobre la Sra. Primeaux: ¡Su talento oculto es restaurar y reutilizar muebles, lo cual alguna vez fue su trabajo extra! Cuando no está en la escuela, la puedes encontrar cerca del agua —preferiblemente en la playa, pero el lago también le sirve—. ¡Su fuente de energía favorita es un «Peach Monster»!

Gracias, Sra. Primeaux, por hacer de Kissam un lugar donde los estudiantes se sienten vistos, escuchados y valorados. 💙💛

⚠️ Threats Are No Joke.

Every threat—whether made in person, online or as a joke—is taken seriously and can lead to disciplinary action and legal consequences.

Please talk with your child about the importance of making responsible choices and reporting concerning behavior. If students see or hear something that could threaten the safety of others, they should not share or respond to it. They should immediately tell a trusted adult, teacher, administrator or law enforcement officer.

Keeping our schools safe is a shared responsibility. Watch the video and help us reinforce this important message: Threats are no joke.
