  • Mr. Tharpe is very proud of Jocelyn and Mack for taking fantastic photos at the Veterans Day assembly for the Yearbook team. They demonstrated respect and professionalism while getting the story.
  • We would like to give a special double shout-out to Wyatt, who was nominated by two different teachers this week! Ms. Bray and Mrs. Calhoun recognized Wyatt for his positive attitude, strong work ethic, and the respect he consistently brings to the classroom. 

Our teachers being recognized this week are Mr. Allen, Mr. Ruhl, and Mrs. Harley

  • Students would like to recognize Mr. Allen for bringing positive energy and humor to his Health, P.E., and Advisory classes every day, ensuring every student feels included and understands the material, and inspiring students to explore the health pathway.
  • Students would like to recognize Mr. Ruhl for creating a welcoming, engaging classroom where every student feels seen and valued, going the extra mile both on the football field and in class, and teaching meaningful life lessons alongside history.  Additionally, his organization and execution of the Veterans Day assembly was appreciated by the entire school community.

BATTLE OF THE BASKETS

Hello KMS Families!
Our annual Battle of the Baskets has officially kicked off! 
Battle of the Baskets is our annual fundraiser. We partner with Kuna Education Foundation to build a basket. Each school has a different theme. The baskets are then auctioned off. 

TWO WAYS YOU CAN YOU HELP!

  • Donate themed items to KMS to help build our basket. 
    • Thanks to the generosity of our staff and families, our basket came in second place last year for the most earned. Let's try to take first this year!
    • our theme is "Baking" 
    • I generated an amazon list of ideas. The basket doesn't have to be limited to this, or even purchased from it. You can if you wish, but hopefully it will give ideas. 
    • Baskets are due on Friday the 20th
    • We are also accepting Family Favorite Recipes to include in a Kuna Middle School Cookbook. Send recipes (pictures are ok) to bjkropp@kunaschools.org
  • Bid on the baskets
    • The virtual basket auction will run from November 27th to December 5th
    • The school whose basket you purchase will receive 80% of the raised basket funds
