Now that our marketplace has officially opened we'd like to welcome you all back to our Global Marketplace for another Community Gathering Market! Please join us next Saturday, 8/15, from 8:00am-1:00pm to see what our community businesses and farm tables have to offer. If the success of the last one is anything to go by, make sure to come early so that the goods you want don't sell out before you get there. Can't wait to see you all again, and if you didn't already last time, bring your friends!
School is starting soon, so you know what that means: KOSD's weekly tutoring program for K-5th grade will be starting soon too! Our program resumes on August 26 and will be held at the KOSD office from 1:00pm-3:00pm. We will be providing homework help, reading support, and other extracurricular programming.
