KVA School Calendar
Fall Festival
Tickets will be on sale for $10 from Monday October 6, through Friday October 17. These are the two weeks before we leave for Fall Break on October 18-21. Tickets will also be on sale at the door the evening of the event, for $15, but we are hoping that you will buy tickets before Fall Break, so that we can plan our supplies of trick- or – treat bags, candy, the numbers of craft items needed, faces to be painted, the line for the Haunted House, the numbers of meals to be served from our food truck (“All Smoked Up”, owned by our very own Ellington family), the layout of games, including a Frozen themed bouncy slide/house, Marvel Comics themed bouncy slide/house, Three Sport ball Kick or Toss game, Ring the 2Liter of your choice, “Go Fish”, Hoppy Ball relays…and more!
There are also plans for a Silent Auction and Bake Sale (with 3 announced Cake Walks throughout the evening), so start planning your contributions and items that you hope to purchase! Homeroom classes are preparing themed baskets for the Silent Auction. If your student’s homeroom teacher hasn’t reached out yet, they will contact you soon to ask for your participation in a themed basket of items to be auctioned. These baskets are much fun to create as a team and are very popular auction items. Other popular auction items are donated tickets for sporting events, pieces of art, housewares, items of jewelry and clothing, gift cards for services, groceries, gas, meals …be thinking of items that you may have available to donate! Also be thinking of homemade baked items that are your favorite to prepare and display for the Bake Sale tables!
Our theme for this year’s Festival is “Old School…by the Whole School” and we hope that you’ll participate and make it a fabulous evening for our elementary students! Invite extended family, neighbors, and friends and get your tickets early J Feel free to email your student’s homeroom teacher or ME (wballinger@kerrvance.com) with any questions or ideas.
Fall Photos
FALL PICTURE DAY
A photographer from Strawbridge Studios will be at school on 9/24/2025 to photograph student Fall pictures.
The link below allows parents to sign-up to receive email updates about their child's school portraits after picture day. These emails are sent to announce important things like when images are ready for viewing online, when novelty items are available for purchase, and when new deals and promotions are being offered. When entering student information, parents should be sure to enter the student's name as it is on file at the school.
Thank you for your assistance in helping us deliver a smooth school picture experience! We look forward to seeing you soon.
Back-To-School Night
We welcome all our families and students back to campus to meet their teachers, hear from the Head of School, and reconnect with old friends and make some new ones. Everyone will gather in the main gym at 5:30pm, then move on to their child(ren)’s classrooms. Kindergarten and Grade 7 are invited to come early at 4:30 to meet their teachers.
