We can't rely on the State. The State budget crisis is projected to last for three years or more. If we're committed to maintaining the quality of our kids' education, we need to take responsibility, since the State won't.
That's why the kik board increased our fundraising goal this year to $1.4 million--we need to be ready to support our kids, no matter what Sacramento does. Without the support of parents and the wider community through kik, our schools cannot excel.
On September 15th 2009, we learned that the Kentfield School District received 942 API (Academic Performance Index) on the State STAR test for spring 2009. This is an outstanding score. Thanks to the great work of students and staff both schools exceeded the state target with Bacich receiving an API score of 946 and Kent receiving a score of 944.
How great is this? We topped all the schools in Marin. What a great place to live. See for yourself.
Our thanks to all the volunteers, business supporters, family and kids that continue to make the Greenbrae / Kentfield area a spectacular place to live and educate our children.
Thank you for your ongoing communications and support,
