Dear Keller Families,
 
It’s been a great start to the new trimester, and students are set up to finish strong to conclude the school year. Until then, we have much to look forward to. With our recent launch of our 2026 Polar Plunge Cool School Challenge, we want to share a quick video, see below, of what this day is all about. Last month we had a kickoff assembly and will continue to promote awareness for this event. Here’s another opportunity to get involved at Keller. Consider registering your student for the plunge or making a donation. So far, we have 176 people plunging, and are still striving to reach our goals.

Do you want to help support Keller’s Polar Plunge but don’t want to take the plunge yourself?  Support team Chillin’ with the Cats by purchasing gear from our Polar Plunge Merch Website, or making a donation to our team, Chillin’ with Cats! Orders are due by March 4th and will be delivered in time for the plunge!
 
Have a wonderful weekend! I look forward to the opportunities that next week brings!
 
As always, if you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact our front office staff or me. Thank you for your patience, flexibility, and support and we will work “TOGETHER AS ONE” to ensure the success of our students.
 
Regards,
 
Tom Barbini
