Kramer Enews 8/16/24
Happy Friday! Our 2nd through 5th-grade students had an excellent start to the school year during the first three days. They, along with our amazing staff, spent time getting to know each other, learning the rules and routines, and familiarizing themselves with the daily procedures of navigating the building. It was a fun and productive week!
Students in Kindergarten and 1st grade will begin school on Monday, August 19, 2024. Please be aware that bus routes and the vehicle line may experience some delays as we ensure each student gets to the correct spot for dismissal. We appreciate your patience as we work through this process.
For our Kindergarten parents and the first day of school, you are welcome to walk your child down the hall to their classroom and drop them off on Monday. After they’ve settled in, you’ll be able to exit the building. Starting Tuesday, all students will enter the building as usual.
The school day will begin at 8:25 am and we will dismiss at 3:05 pm. Students may enter the building for breakfast starting at 8:05 am. Students who do not eat breakfast at Kramer may enter the building at 8:05 am.
If your child does not ride the bus and they are dropped off by a vehicle, please use the lower lot, which was the old bus entrance. As always, we will have Kramer staff members on the sidewalks to help students enter the building.
For the 2024-25 school year, all vehicles will drop off in the bus loop area. All buses will drop off in the parking lot outside the main entrance. Students who walk or ride their bikes to school will enter the building through the main doors by the flagpole.
Final Forms
Final Forms was introduced a few years ago to complete student information. If you have created an account you can log in, check your information, and update your forms. The Kramer staff have been trained on how to use Final Forms and can assist you with any problems that you may encounter. If you need access to the internet or a computer, please stop in the Kramer office and we will assist you.

Carpooling to School
Are you interested in setting up a carpool to or from Kramer? Check out the Kramer Carpool Organizing Sheet. Within the spreadsheet, there are options for you to fill out whether you can offer a ride or whether you need a ride. This is a place to help you make connections. No one will be assigning you to a carpool or making a match. Thank you to Sarah Pechan Driver and Carla Blackmar for creating this!
