Welcome to the 2021-2022 school year.  We are so happy to be together.  Our staff is ready and eager to make this transition back to full time days of school a positive experience for every family and each student.   You are important to us. Our teachers and entire staff are dedicated to making Ballou a place where each student feels they belong.   

During the month of September we are going to do our best to keep everyone safe, help students make positive peer connections through a variety of collaboration strategies and  get organized for school (including study habits).    Later in October, we will set up times for you to conference with teachers via private  TEAMS meetings.  However, please reach out to us before then with any and all questions.     My expectation is that staff return your emails or calls within 24 hours.

Warm regards for a wonderful school year!

With PRIDE, 

Mrs. Kusche
