Back to School at a Glance!

Dear Christ the King School Families,

I hope this note finds you all well and enjoying the last few days of summer. I am excited to begin my second year at CKS, and I am sending this email to provide a bit of information concerning the first week of school (and a few future dates). Most school correspondence will be issued through my email (Mrs. Tomkowicz, the Associate Principal, will be added soon for reply purposes).
