Our Good Shepherd Food Pantry will be held today from 2:15 to 4:00 in the KES bus garage. All are welcome!
Going forward doors will not open until 2:15.
Please do not plan to arrive early as it creates traffic confusion for buses and student pickup.
Thank you!
Exploration Science has been hard at work building their first KMS outdoor classroom with a trail that will lead to Route 11. Currently the floor has been cleared and the Cedar logs are being placed around the perimeter for protection and privacy. This will be one of three classrooms that will be available in the KMHS woodline. Please make sure you come and visit our work!
Due to inclement weather, students will be dismissed from RSU 89 schools at 11:30. They will be served lunch before leaving school today.

Students utilize the gear library as they prepare for their outdoor learning journeys. Children have access to hats, gloves, socks, shoes/boots, rain/ski pants, and jackets. Items from the gear library have been donated or purchased through MEEA grants and our RREV project. All items are washed before landing in the library. Children are able to borrow and house any gear necessary in their lockers for future use. We are always accepting donations (hats and gloves) to keep our library fully stocked for students!
