Good Afternoon King and Queen Community!
We wanted to share that transportation is working very hard to make sure students are on the correct routes as well as making other adjustments to routes in order to be as efficient as possible. During this time, if you are tracking information through the Viafy app, you may not see any route information or you may potentially see different route information as these changes are taking place.
Bus drivers will continue to reach out to share pick up times and other important route information. If you have not heard from a bus driver please contact your student's school and they will forward that information to our Transportation Coordinator.
Thank you for the patience as we make these transportation adjustments.
Have a great night.
We are looking forward to the start of the 2023-2024 school year! Welcome back students and families!
Please enjoy Dr. Carter, Division Superintendent, reading "All are Welcome" by Alexandra Penfold and Suzanne Kaufman

King and Queen Elementary School (KQES), built in 1937, formerly known as Pleasant Hill High School will no longer exist after this fall as it is today. Students will be relocated to a site with modulars for the school year (2023-2024) while a new building is built. The Class of 1988 and 1992 buried time capsules when they were 7th graders before being promoted to the 8th grade to Central High School. The now adults came to KQES and dug up their capsules. Inside the capsule were letters students wrote to themselves, a program of the promotion ceremony, Richmond Times newspaper clipping, cassette tape, and VHS tapes.
******Attention Summer Tiger Academy Families******
Due to the weather, all summer academy students will be released today at 10:30am.
Happy summer from KQES!
