Welcome to Kelloggsville

Tuesday, September 17th, 2024 is the first night of Secondary (6th-12th grade) Parent Teacher Conferences! Conferences will be held at Kelloggsville Middle School, Kelloggsville High School, & 54th Street Academy from 4:00 p.m. until 7:30 p.m.! They will also be held on Wednesday, September 25th, from 4:00 p.m. until 7:30 p.m.!

Dear Community,

    At approximately 11:45 a.m., the administration received a phone call from Kelloggsville’s school resource officer saying that Wyoming PD was looking for a suspect near 32nd St. and Clyde Park Ave. Out of precaution, we placed all of our schools into a passive lockout. We limited movement in the building during this time and held in-door recess. This was strictly out of precaution, and at no time were any students in danger, 

    It was determined that around 2:15 p.m., it was safe to come out of the passive lockout, and we could dismiss the students as usual.   Again, this was initiated out of an abundance of precaution to keep our students and staff safe as outside threats were being looked into. At no time was any student in immediate danger during this process, and Kelloggsville will continue to take all safety issues seriously and work with local authorities to do so. 

    At Kelloggsville Public Schools, the safety of our students and staff is our unwavering priority. We are committed to providing you with the most accurate information as quickly as possible in the event of a safety concern. We appreciate your ongoing support as we continue to work together to maintain a safe environment for our school community. Remember, we encourage your students to speak up if they see or hear anything they believe is unsafe.

Dear Community,

We hope that summer is going well and you are enjoying some sun and good weather. We wanted to take a moment and share with you some changes to our school start and end times starting this upcoming school year. We are moving our start and end times up by 20 minutes for all elementary and secondary schools. We know this is a change and different than what you are used to, but these changes help Kelloggsville align our building times with other schools in Kent County. Below you will find the start and end times and other information that will be in effect for the 2024-25 school year. 

Elementary Schools            Secondary Schools

Start Time 8:25                    Start Time 7:40 

End Time 3:15                     End Time 2:40

The first day of school for students in the 2024-25 school year will be August 20th, 2024. 

Thank you for your support and understanding of these changes. We want to make sure you have time to plan accordingly. Please make sure to attend our Rocket Registration event on July 31st from 8:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. and August 1st from 3:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m.
