Important information for parents regarding student
placement for the 2013-2014 school year

• If you've entered the school in the last 2 weeks, you've noticed the art project being developed on the columns in front of our school. Please see this article to learn more about what's happening in Keheley's art world!
• As you know, Keheley Kids love to read! There are several ways for them to have good books during the long, hot summer:
  
  1) Support Keheley's Summer Reading Book Fair!  Reading for pleasure is important for all of us. Who knows of a better way to spend a hot summer's day?
  
  2) Take advantage of the public library and its summer reading program. This year's program is called "Dig Into Reading." For information, visit http://cobbcast.cobbk12.org or call 770-509-4964. Let's get some good books into our students' hands! And, please, let the students choose what they read during the summer.
• We value the safety of all Keheley Kids! If you plan on driving or walking to pick up your child from school on a daily or weekly basis, please make sure you have an assigned number to display on your dashboard OR you are carrying it (if you're walking to meet your child). For our children's safety, staff members have been instructed to release students ONLY to people who have a number. Please sign up for your number in our main office. Identification is required in order to receive a number.

• Are you collecting "pop tabs" to help families staying in Atlanta area Ronald McDonald Houses? You just need to remove the tabs from soda (and other) cans and save them in a plastic bag to bring to Keheley.  By doing this, we are helping families with very sick children and helping our environment at the same time!(Don't forget to recycle the rest of the can!)
• We're fundraising and recycling for a great cause - childhood cancer! Please send your used printer cartridges & toner, cell phones, digital cameras, PDAs and MP3 Players to the media center to be recycled. All of these items are accepted in working or nonworking condition. The environment benefits by keeping toxins out of our ground water and air, CURE Childhood Cancer benefits with funding and public awareness, and Keheley benefits from the funds raised. Everybody wins! Thanks for your support.
• Peachcare for Kids offers affordable health insurance for children in Georgia. For more information and to apply for coverage, please visit this website: http://www.peachcare.org/
