Dear KMS Families,
What a week it has been at KMS! Our choir, band, and orchestra students put on beautiful spring performances, the Drama Club absolutely killed it on stage, the Wood Shop and Art Department's Spring Sale was a hit, and the 7th Grade Fantastic Beasts Display at KPL is still going if you have not seen it yet, so go check it out! We also had a great time welcoming our future Kodiak families at the PTSA's 5th Grade Family Fun Night. There is so much good stuff happening around here, and honestly, the next few weeks are shaping up to be even busier.
Before we get too deep into our end of year celebrations though, we want to make sure every student is in a good spot academically. Credit Recovery is the only way to make up failing quarter grades this year, so if your student needs it, please do not sleep on it. Students need a yearly average of 60 or better in ELA, Reading, Writing, and Math to avoid summer school or having to repeat a class next year. A quick check of grades now can save a big headache later.
We also want to give families a heads up that students with failing grades and/or Tier II or Tier III behavioral referrals will not be eligible to participate in some of the upcoming end of year events. We know that is tough to hear, but we want everyone to have the full picture. The good news is there is still time to finish the year on a great note, and we genuinely mean it when we say we are in your student's corner. Let's finish strong, KMS!
