KMS February Spirit Week 

Get ready for another fun spirit week.  As we get ready for winter break let's celebrate all things February.  What will you be wearing to school this week?

Important Drop off Information

When dropping off your student in the morning, please do not park in the drop-off area.  We want to keep the line moving.  Please pull up, drop your student off, and pull away.  If you have questions or concerns please feel free to reach out.

This Week at KMS




Fundraiser for Open Cafe

Students who participate in Open Cafe on Tuesday and Wednesday are looking to raise some money for snacks and supplies.  Bring in $1.00 or more to send a treat to your friends for Valentine's Day.


KMS Builders Club collecting Cans of Soup

The KMS Builders Club is collecting cans of soup for the Vaughan Food Pantry.  Soup can be dropped off in the bin outside reception.  Thank you!

Learn to Play Volleyball

Kennett High School Volleyball Coach Craig Bartolomei, with the assistance of current and former KHS players, will teach volleyball to all participants for the first two weeks. The third week will include playing games as well as some skills.
This is open to all 6th, 7th & 8th graders at KMS.
If you have any questions about the program, please reach out to Coach Bartolomei at craig@bartolomeilaw.com. To sign up to participate in the Volleyball clinic fill out the form below.

8th Graders Visiting Kennett High School
On Wednesday, March 5th, 8th graders will be taking part in a transition field trip to Kennett High School.  They will get a full tour of the building, as well as have the opportunity to visit and observe six career tech classes.  Students will take a survey ahead of time to match their interests with the classes they wish to observe so the experience will be personalized to meet the needs of each student.   Field trip forms and permission slips will be coming home soon, so be on the lookout.  There will also be a student/guardian information night for current 8th graders at Kennett High School on Wednesday, March 12th.  More information will be coming on that as well!  Any questions- please reach out to Ms. Thornton (a_thornton@sau9.org) or Mrs. McAllister (a_mcallister@sau9.org).

Happy School Counseling Appreciation Week!


If you see Ms. Thornton or Mrs. McAllister, be sure to thank them for all they do for our students all year long!

From the School Nurse

It’s already February!  I hope everyone is enjoying some Winter fun!  I’ve

been seeing quite a few kiddos that report not feeling well and after chatting

with them realize that they have not eaten breakfast.  Please remind your

child to eat breakfast every day and how important it is to start the day off

on a healthy note!  A great grab and go alternative could be a healthy

granola bar.  Maybe you can have your child carry a few in their backpacks. 

Also, breakfast is available every day at school!
