Please Welcome our Newest KHES Teacher
I am overjoyed with excitement to be able to introduce you to our newest Keller-Harvel teacher, Mrs. Denise Paul.
Mrs. Paul shares, “My vision for education is simple. I want children to learn, feel loved and become successful.” We are thrilled to for her to share her vision with the students of KHES.
She comes to us with over seven years of teaching experience across many grade levels including Pre-Kindergarten, 1st grade, 2nd grade, 3rd grade, as an intervention tutor, and as a long-term substitute. She has served in Keller ISD, Birdville ISD, Southlake and in California .
Crossing Guard Needed ASAP
The KISD School Walk for Diabetes will be held on April 2, 2016
In preparation for this, the P.E. dept is starting a fundraiser selling Paper Diabetic Shoes. The sale will start Monday Feb 8 and “RUN” through Friday, February 26th. Each shoe requires a $1.00 donation.
This year, the teacher whose class (per grade level) with the most shoes purchased will be allowed the opportunity to put a pie in the face of: Mrs. Eriksen, Mrs. Evans, Mr. Smith, Mrs. Shipp or Nurse Rhonda. Names will be drawn for this event. Also, the student, per grade level, who donates the most money towards buying paper shoes will be given the opportunity to “pie” their choice of the above mentioned names.
We thank you in advance for all of your help and support.
Donuts with Dads
Please bring your dad for our annual breakfast and show him how much he means to you.
Friday, February 19, 2016 from 7:00-8:00am
We look forward to seeing all of the wonderful Keller-Harvel students and dads! If you have any questions or would like to help with this event, please feel free to contact our PTA representatives.
