Dear KPS Families,

Killingly Public Schools is committed to continuing to support our students during this challenging time. 

Remote Learning Plans:

Tomorrow, Monday March 30th, we will be implementing  our Remote Learning Plans.  If you need technical assistance to support your child's remote learning on Monday or  if you have questions related to device pick up, please contact our IT department at (860) 779-6665.  Staff will be available to answer questions from 8am-12pm on Monday 3/30 and Tuesday 3/31. 

Remote Learning Plans for each school can be found here: https://www.killinglyschools.org/remote-learning-plans 

School Building Closed 

As a district, KPS will be moving additional staff to work remotely and closing all school buildings this week.  School staff will respond to questions remotely, and our Central Office will be open from 8:00-12:30 each day to respond to calls.   

Device Pickup,

We will be doing another device distribution next Tuesday 3/31/20 from 4-6pm at Killingly Intermediate School. This will be an opportunity for any families with K-8 students that have not yet picked up a device to get one. 

In order to help us prepare, please fill out this 5 question survey. This is a new, shorter survey:https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScr2IHauCwXP1gwgx4zi7CkdCDYrqFhcWC56G1S7WtJGRwjZg/viewform?usp=sf_link

During the extended school closure, Killingly Public Schools will be offering free Grab and Go prepared breakfast and lunch meals for all children under the age of 18.  Meals will be distributed at Killingly Memorial School, 339 Main Street Monday, Wednesday, and  Friday from 10:30 a.m to 1:00 p.m. A walk-up and drive-thru station will be available.  When bagged meals are picked up, four meals will be provided. Each student will receive two breakfast meals and two lunch meals to span over two days. For those children under 18 years of age who do not live within a half mile of Killingly Memorial School, we have created a delivery service to bring those meals home to children on Monday, Wednesday and Friday.

Please call the Killingly Transportation Dept. at 860-779-6790 if you are a family that would like to be added to the delivery system. 

Please note, this plan is subject to change, dependent upon on enrollment and the COVID-19 status in our community.  

Governor Ned Lamont issued a new executive order that will require schools across the state to remain closed until at least April 20.
