KIK FUNDS UPDATES TO BACICH HOOPS
Thanks to generous 2021-2022 donations, KIK fully funded various updates to our Bacich Basketball Courts this summer, including:
- Lowered hoops which offers more age appropriate hoop heights for our younger students
- Replaced and refurbished backstops, hoops and nets, where needed
- Repainted basketball poles
- Added durable padding around the base of the poles
Thank you Donors!
ENRICHMENT SPOTLIGHT: Physical Education (PE)
Your KIK donations help support PE at Bacich and Kent.
Our KSD kids love the chance to run, play, learn about their physical fitness, and challenge themselves.
Thank you to Jean Marc Schafer, Celeste Perez, and Ilene Braff at Bacich; and Jason Gatti, Matt Gillespie, and Chloe Duncan (while Maryellen Gore is on maternity leave) at Kent.
Our PE Coaches lead and inspire our children to try a wide variety of new sports, and to push themselves through various challenges and towards new goals, all while having fun!
