 Message from Principal Duncan~

We’re now entering the final week of the first trimester and preparing to start the second. This trimester has been dedicated to focusing on student learning, fostering strong connections with our students, and making sure every student has the support they need to thrive.

The upcoming weeks will be lively, with holiday festivities on campus, our National Blue Ribbon Ceremony, and conference week on the horizon. Our school’s goal for the next six weeks is to maintain our high standards for academics and behavior, while also incorporating plenty of holiday cheer.  Thank you for continuing to support your child and their success here at Kaseberg!

PBIS in Action!~

At Kaseberg Elementary, we strive to create a positive and welcoming environment for all students, guided by the PBIS (Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports) framework. A key component of PBIS is teaching students clear expectations, which helps them achieve their best both academically and socially.

Each month we focus on a new character trait and each classroom teaches our students about the trait, what it looks like in action, and how to use the trait on campus at at home.  For the month of October, our students have focused on having a Growth Mindset.  They have been learning about setting goals in school and how to persevere when faced with a challenge. 


Home Connection:  We encourage parents to ask their child about having a Growth Mindset and finding ways to set goals at home, and how to use the power of "YET".   



Staff Professional Development~


Our Kaseberg Staff and the entire RCSD District will be partaking in staff training this Thursday and Friday to learn new ways to support students behaviorally and academically.  Enjoy the two days off for students!

 Message from Principal Duncan~

Over the past two weeks since we found out the amazing news that our school is a 2024 National Blue Ribbon school I have had time to reflect on this amazing achievement.  Over the past five years as the Principal of Kaseberg, the staff and I have made it our mission to set high-expectations for our students and show them that they are capable of anything!  This achievement has shown us that when students are cared for, surrounded by a team that truly loves them, and expectations are held high, our students can do hard things.  Thank you for being a huge part of this school and sharing your amazing children with us. 
 
In November, we will hold a school-wide celebration rally with our students to celebrate their hard work of this achievement.  During the rally, our School Board and Superintendent will share in this celebration.  We look forward to spending this 2024-2025 school year celebrating our amazing little school!
