Dear Keppel family, We are so excited for this new school year and what it will bring to our children, families and staff. As many of you may be aware, we have an enrollment center this year that was handling enrollments for all schools. However, to better serve the community, all enrollment will be transitioning back to the school sites, effective Monday August 14, 2023. What does this mean? If your child is still pending enrollment, please call your school of residence and inquire about the status of the enrollment. Also, any questions regarding enrollment from grades K-8th grade, please direct them to the school of residence. We thank you for your patience and cooperation during this transition. -Keppel Union School District

Querida familia Keppel, Estamos muy emocionados por este nuevo año escolar y lo que traerá a nuestros niños, familias y personal. Como muchos de ustedes sabrán, tenemos un centro de matriculacion este año que estaba manejando las matriculaciones para todas las escuelas. Sin embargo, para servir mejor a la comunidad, todas las matriculaciones volverán a las escuelas a partir del lunes 14 de Agosto de 2023. ¿Qué quiere decir esto? Si la matriculacion de su hijo (a) aún está pendiente, llame a la escuela de residencia y pregunte sobre el estado de la matriculacion. Además, si tiene alguna pregunta sobre la matriculacion de los grados K-8, diríjase a la escuela de residencia. Le agradecemos su paciencia y cooperación durante esta transición. -Distrito Escolar de Keppel
