Welcome to Kootenai Elementary
June 13, 2025
Hello Kootenai Families,
I hope this message finds you enjoying a relaxing and joyful summer!
This is a time to recharge, reflect, and reset. As we prepare for another exciting school year, our team is already looking ahead with enthusiasm and care. We’re planning meaningful learning experiences, refreshing our classrooms, and thinking of ways to continue building a strong, supportive school community for every child.
We’ve already started REGISTRATION for the upcoming school year! This is INCREDIBLY important since our class sizes have grown. Please save your child’s spot for next year by completing online registration (CLICK HERE).
We can’t wait to welcome you back in the fall and hear all about your summer adventures. Until then, enjoy the rest of your break—stay safe, stay curious, and keep learning in all the ways summer allows.
As always, please check out our social media pages (Facebook & Instagram) for updates, pictures, and additional information!
Warmly,
Jennifer Bicandi, Principal
SCHOOL ENROLLMENT
Enrollment is REQUIRED for ALL families (new and returning). Go to LPOSD's enrollment information page for details. All families MUST upload proof of residency (utility bill or rental agreement).
You MUST sign up for a Parent PowerSchool account at https://lposd.powerschool.com/public before you can enroll a returning student.
NEW and CURRENT/RETURNING families who would like to be considered for enrollment in a school OTHER THAN their zoned school ("open-enrollment") must fill out the open enrollment application.
If you are having issues with the process, please email: helpdesk@lposd.org.
SEE - TELL - NOW
All schools in Lake Pend Oreille School District utilize See, Tell, Now! -- a Student Threat Reporting System. The anonymous tip line is staffed by trained technicians who receive and evaluate tips 24/7. The tips are screened for accuracy and severity, then assigned to school points of contact or law enforcement, if applicable.
