This is a Tutoring Permission Slip Reminder for Kindergarten - Third Grade Students
Dear Kennedy Families,
This is a friendly reminder that tutoring permission slips must be returned by Monday, September, 21, 2026.
Tutoring is strongly recommended to help your child make continued academic growth.
Because space is limited, any permission slips not returned by Monday may result in the spot being offered to another student.
An additional tutoring opportunity will be available in the spring.
Please return the completed permission slip on Monday to secure your child’s spot.
Thank you for partnering with us to support your child’s success!
