This year’s Veterans Day assembly was a deeply moving tribute to those who have served. We were privileged to see so many veterans, active service members, and families fill our gym, where they were treated to amazing performances by the KMS Chorus and Band. Guest speaker and KMS parent Travis Mankle spoke with students about his time in service, followed by a special presentation from Connie Enman of Quilts of Valor, who honored Jacob Jackson with this year's quilt. We are grateful to the KMS History department and CAST for their hard work in creating such a welcoming and respectful experience for our guests. |

Please take a moment to share your thoughts so we can ensure our school continues to support and inspire every student.

Parents and Relatives, let's plan to attend an exceptional musical performance by our students this coming Tuesday at 7:00pm on campus in our gymnasium. |
Parents, this information is from Central District Health. You can learn about how to start a conversation with your child about vaping and get valuable resources to help your child. This is a virtual presentation and you could win a $100 gift card! |
Our next Facts & Snacks event will be on November 17th. Employees from Western States Cat will be here to introduce students to rewarding career opportunities in the heavy equipment and construction industries. Students that sign up will need to bring their lunch to the library during their lunch block. |
Now that it is darker when students are heading to school and icy roads are coming soon, it's important we all do our part to stay safe as students are coming too and from school.
- If your child rides a bike or scooter to school, including an e-bike or scooter, make sure they wear a helmet and have a light and reflectors. We have flashing red lights for them in the office or with the SRO for free.
- Remind your child of the rules of the road and that they should use designated crossings. Please remind them to push the cross walk button if there is one.
- Please slow down in school zones and be sure to drive the speed limit. When the lights are flashing on Ten Mile and on Boise St, it is 20 MPH.
- Ensure your children are watching for vehicles.
- It is best if students do not wear all dark clothing, when icy roads come, it's difficult for drivers to see them and difficult to stop.
If everyone slows down and is alert, we can all do our part to make sure everyone is safe!
