Magic happens when our community supports our classrooms. ✨ We are proud to highlight the incredible impact of The Jungman Family Legacy Grant, which was generously donated at the 2025 Legacy Gala!

Thanks to this wonderful support, Jake Whiteley at Monday Elementary School is launching "The Monday Student Journalists and the Cub Chronicle"! 📰🎙️

This innovative program gives fifth-grade students an authentic journalism platform to run their own monthly print newsletter, The Cub Chronicle, and produce the school's weekly live broadcast announcements.

Thank you to the Jungman family for your incredible dedication to KISD and for empowering our next generation of storytellers!

Investing in our educators pays the best dividends. 📈 We are deeply honored to showcase a special project funded through the Mike Crow Memorial Legacy Grant, which was generously donated at the 2025 Legacy Gala!

Because of this meaningful legacy, Camille Thayer at Phillips Elementary School is launching "The Reluctant Bookworm Encourager"! 📚✨

This project expands her classroom library with engaging graphic novels designed to transform hesitant readers into confident, excited bookworms. By pairing rich vocabulary with visual storytelling, these high-interest books remove frustration, boost comprehension, and are already flying off the shelves!

Thank you to everyone who supports our legacy grants to help foster a lifelong love of reading in our students!
