Thank You – Kiowa County School District RE-1
The first day of school today was a huge success and I would like to thank the staff, parents, students, and community for their cooperation and support.
Our reopening plan worked very well. The staff met after school today to discuss the things that needed to be improved and the many things that went well.
Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns
Thank you
