THANK YOU: We want to extend a heartfelt thank you to our Kean PTO for their incredible support during recent events. They provided delicious meals for our staff during conferences, coordinated and staffed our Fall Scholastic Book Fair, and organized fantastic raffle baskets for our Taste of the Habits: At Home Version. We are so grateful for their hard work and dedication to our students and staff. The impact they make in our school community is truly appreciated—thank you, Kean PTO, for everything you do!
Change in Dismissal Plans: If you ever need to change the dismissal plan for your child, please contact your child's teacher and Mrs. Schmid before 3:00 PM of that day. Any notifications to the school after 3:00 PM are not guaranteed to be reflected in that day's dismissal procedures.
Safety: To ensure the safety of our students and staff, please do not let others into the building after being buzzed in the front door. Do not hold the door for the person behind you to let them enter the building. Each individual visitor must buzz in and be granted entry by our secretary. Thank you for your cooperation.
Free/Reduced Lunch: If you believe your family may qualify for Free/Reduced lunch rates, please visit the website linked below to apply. A new application must be completed each school year, one per family. Filling out an application helps us with funding and future planning. A reduced breakfast is $0.30 and a reduced lunch is $0.40.
