To our KASEP Families: Due to the ongoing presence of COVID-19 in our state, the Kensington Community Council and KASEP find themselves in a period of unprecedented transition which has forced WCCUSD and many other school districts to start the academic year providing only distance learning. We are following the WCCUSD’s lead in these matters. We have been working through the summer with our wonderful teachers to transfer to an online presence. We understand that many families are actively looking for enriching outlets for their children in the Fall, and we want to support our community by providing a variety of enriching opportunities. A number of our teachers have successfully taught online classes this summer and are willing to work with us in the Fall. However, we must acknowledge our limitations and respect the Contra Costa Health Service COVID-19 guidelines. As a non-profit, the KCC is limited in our scope of classes by the amount of open space, bathroom facilities, and staff available. As of this posting, we have only one set of bathrooms in Building E which limits the number of kids we can accommodate based on the Contra Costa Health Services guidelines. We do not have access to the Community Center at this time and do not know when kids will be able to use this facility. We realize that the start of the school year will be a difficult balancing act for everyone. We hope that you and your families are all well and continue into the Fall in good health.
