As we work our way through state testing at all of the schools and put finishing touches on research posters students are showing up and staying engaged. We are so proud of how kids are persevering through what is certainly the most hectic season of the school year. At home ask how they are planning and organizing their time. Ask your student at home if they are willing to share their calendars or KAMSC planners with you. This can help reduce stress just by having a thought partner to articulate the plan with. Next week we look forward to hosting our senior luncheon on Friday afternoon at the Radisson for our senior students. Due to that event there will be no afternoon classes for juniors on April 24th. Morning classes will run as normal.
Student Senate is selling graduation yard signs for the class of 2026. The cost will be $25. If your family would like to purchase one, please click the button below to order one. Please bring cash or check made out to KAMSC to the office in order for your order to be placed. All money is due by May 1.
On Friday, May 1st all KAMSC 9th, 10th, and 12th graders will head to WMU's College of Health and Human Services to attend a professional conference on topics in the area of public health. Students will have two keynote addresses and three breakout sessions to attend. Students will be provided lunch. We are looking for 10 parent volunteers to help deliver, set up, and clean up lunch for the conference. Volunteers would meet at KAMSC around 9:45 and then head to WMU and be there until approx. 1 pm. Please click the link below to volunteer to help.
Parent Org. Information
The KAMSC parent organization would like to invite you to keep abreast of their meeting agendas/minutes and dates so that you can be as involved as you like. It would be great to get more underclassmen parents involved so that you can help lead as some of our families "graduate" out. Click this link to review meeting agendas/ minutes.
I hope that you all have had a chance to review our KAMSC Handbook and sign the acceptance form through PowerSchool. Here is a direct link to it again. I would invite you to be sure that you have read through the MTSS support procedures. I will pull grades to review the 3.0 requirements and use that as a gauge to get more support for students. If your child is showing that need, Mrs. Allbee or I will email you and the child to set up support provided by KAMSC. This is required for a three week interval and then we pull grades again to review. Our hope is always that that three week interval is enough support but students will sometimes move in and out of support throughout a semester. Please know, that this is meant to be a supportive measure. We take our responsibility of helping your child achieve the high standards of KAMSC seriously.
If you are dropping off or picking up your student at KAMSC, please do so at the Vine Street entrance. Please find a safe place to pull over and then have you student proceed to the Vine street entrance. If students are driving themselves:
1. They need to acquire a parking pass from the KAMSC office - please fill this out
2. They need to park by the El Sol playground off of Dutton Street (but then walk to Vine street entrance)
3. They should be reminded to not keep anything valuable in their car and to keep their cars locked at all times.
4. The building will have a campus security officer at the Vine Street entrance during times of arrivals and dismissals.
