KMS NEWSLETTER

Dear Parents and Guardians,

This is a friendly reminder that the 2nd quarter and 1st semester will officially end this Friday, January 17th. As we approach this important milestone, we encourage you to speak with your student about completing and turning in any missing assignments that are still being accepted. This is a great opportunity for students to finish strong and ensure their grades reflect their best efforts.

Please note that the new quarter and semester will begin on Monday, January 20th.

Thank you for your continued support in helping our students succeed!

The weather may have been rough, but is was smooth sailing at KMS Friday night aboard the SS Grizz!

Thank you to all the volunteers (families and staff) that helped. We wouldn’t be able to do this for our students without you. Y’all are pure magic. (added bonus: hearing the whole karaoke lounge singing together.)
