KCAPA Excels through ARTS

Message from the Principal’s Desk

October 8, 2024

Dear KCAPA Students and Families,

Happy October! We have successfully made it to the second month of the school year. I just wanted to take a moment to share some highlights from September. Last month, we held our annual Peace Day Rally for our 9th Graders. Students participated in community-building activities during the Rally for Peace, had a drum line performance, and interacted with community stakeholders. Thank you Ms. Leech, the 9th Grade team, and Mrs. Carr for organizing that event.

We also had a successful virtual Back to School Night, where we met and engaged with parents/guardians/caregivers. It was so wonderful seeing or meeting each of you! If you were unable to make it, you will find the presentation from Back to School Night below. Additionally, we engaged our 12th-grade parents during the Senior Parent Meeting, where they received information about graduation and senior activities. Thank you, Ms. Keiper and Ms. Walker, for organizing the event.

Finally, KCAPA student dances and athletes had a busy month! The KCAPA Dance team participated in the Puerto Rican Day Parade. Below, you can find videos and pictures from the event. Thank you, Mrs. McLean, for all you do for our dance team and program!  KCAPA athletics officially started with students participating in all of our Fall Sports. They are all off to a fantastic start.

I look forward to a year of sharing our school highlights and important information throughout the year.

Sincerely,

Principal McDermott
