Thank you to the more than 90 friends who partnered with KDS DAR School during the #GivingTuesday campaign to fund 100 chairs for the KDS Music Education Department!
These new chairs will provide proper support for students practicing with instruments and will replace the rag-tag collection of folding and plastic chairs that are no longer reliable. The chairs will be utilized in both an academic and performance setting. The students are very excited and can hardly wait to use them! We look forward to hearing the beautiful band and choral music!
If you missed the opportunity to help with this terrific project, do not worry, we have lots of other 'seats' to fill! With more than 1,300 students on campus, there are always projects going on! Check us out at www.kdsdar.org to see how you can make a difference in the lives of the students at KDS!

KDS Libraries Showered with Books, Books, and
More Books
KDS was thrilled to receive a special Christmas gift in the form of 553 new books from the Jacob Ferree Chapter, NSDAR, in Pennsylvania. Eleven large boxes of books arrived just before the holiday break and were sorted and delivered to the Elementary, Middle, and High School Libraries.
Everyone at KDS would like to express appreciation to the generous donors who helped make Christmas merry for some special boys and girls and their families. Sixty-five KDS students were sponsored, and nearly $10,000 was given by 99 donors through the 2016 "Snowflake" Holiday Giving Campaign, ensuring that families in need would have reason to celebrate on Christmas morning. What a wonderful way to rejoice in the spirit of the holiday season!
