Kearsley Families, We still have many families that have not yet completed the online annual renewal process for their student(s). Completing this process is extremely important as it ensures we have the most up-to-date contact information for you and your child’s emergency contacts. We have already encountered situations this school year in which we needed to contact a parent for an emergency situation and did not have the most recent phone number or contact information. Included as part of this annual renewal process is completing the Household Income Form. Completion of this form is critically important to ensure we receive the maximum amount of federal and state funding. It also ensures that we can continue to offer universal breakfast and lunch to all Kearsley students. Pandemic EBT benefits that have provided supplemental food assistance benefits to families throughout the COVID-19 pandemic are also tied directly to the completion of this form. The entire renewal process should not take more than 10 minutes per child. You may complete annual renewal by simply accessing your child’s ParentVue account. There is a direct link on the front page in the upper right hand corner of the Kearsley Schools website. If you need assistance logging into ParentVue, please contact us at 810-249-1266. Thank you, Paul Gaudard Superintendent Kearsley Community Schools

Kearsley Pineview families, We currently have more elementary students residing in Pineview than our bus routes can hold, therefore we have come up with an alternate solution to get all of our students to school safely. Bus #19 (15) will be at the 1st stop in Pineview at 7:55 a.m. and continue to the other stops to pick up Dowdall students only. The same Bus #19 (15) will come back to Pineview @ 8:15 am to pick up Fiedler students only. The afternoon route will be the same. Dowdall students will be dropped off @ 3:20 p.m. and then Fiedler students @ 3:40 p.m. This change will go into effect beginning tomorrow, Thursday September 15, 2022 and will continue throughout the remainder of the school year. As a result of these changes, Bus 7’s run has been eliminated. Thank you for your patience and cooperation, Kearsley Transportation Department

Kearsley families, Online annual review for the 2022-23 school year is now open! You will need to access your ParentVUE account to complete this process. This online registration and enrollment process is REQUIRED for all current students, as well as any new Kearsley students. If you need to enroll your child in school, please visit the Kearsley Administration Building at 4396 Underhill Dr., Flint MI 48506. While the parents of our KHS and AMS students have been accessing their student’s information through ParentVue for many years, ParentVue was new to elementary parents last year. It has been helpful for parents to access and change your child’s information and communicate with the district more effectively. This is also how you’ll receive your child’s teacher assignment. If you have never used ParentVUE for any of your children, you will need an activation key to login for the first time. If you do not have your activation code, please contact the Kearsley Technology HelpDesk at 810-591-1266. The direct link to complete this process is https://parentvue.geneseeisd.org/kear/PXP2_Login_Parent.aspx?regenerateSessionId=True and is also available on the main page of our district website. This process will take approximately ten (10) minutes per student. It is critically important that we have current, updated information for each of our students. We look forward to a great school year! Thank you, Paul Gaudard Superintendent Kearsley Community Schools
