A Note from Ms. Johnson

Wow! Hard to believe we are a quarter into school already, time flies when you are having fun! As the Leadership Coordinator, it was so exciting to have such a successful Activity Night. We had 240 students attend, and fun was had by all. Our next Activity Night is tentatively scheduled for December 10th. More information to come!
All 6th graders will receive new schedules at the start of 2nd Quarter. Most students will have a different afternoon exploratory class.
ALL students will receive new schedules following the Winter Break, on January 4th. 7th and 8th grade students will be allowed to access their 2nd Semester Schedules in December, so they can make Schedule Change Requests before the Winter Break.
Lastly, KMS has been selected to participate in the NAEP Assessment (National Assessment of Educational Progress). This assessment affects only select 8th graders, and will take place on January 26th, 2022. More information will be forthcoming, as we get nearer the assessment date.
Here’s to a great 2nd Quarter!
