Student Senate will be meeting on Tuesday, September 13th in the library to discuss homecoming week! This year, Homecoming kicks off on October 3rd culminating with the dance on October 8th.

NEW THIS YEAR! Starting this year, students will receive a digital copy of their ID. Students, you can use this on your phone or mobile device for situations like lunch payment, and library use that requires your student ID card to be viewed or scanned by school personnel, in place of the physical ID card that you received on picture day.

Please save (screenshot) the digital ID card on your phone or mobile device. Please do not discard your physical ID card as this is still very important. The digital version is meant to be a backup in case the physical card is lost or damaged.

Look for more information about digital IDs in your email by late next week!

Please email Empire Photography at customerservice@empirephotos.com or call 608-257-2941 between 8:30 am and 5 pm, Monday-Friday, if you have any questions.

Didn't make it to picture days in August? No worries, picture make-up day is Friday, September 9, 11 am - 2 pm in the library.

Sure was a humid Saturday morning... but that didn't stop the Boys Cross Country Team from bringing home a 1st place team title on the JV side, and a 2nd place team title for the Varsity! Cole Mirek led the JV squad with a 3rd place finish followed by a great pack of Cole Thompson, Ryan Keller, and Connor Price. Freshman Carter Schroeder rounded off the JV scorers for the team title. On the varsity side, Mike Wawrzyn and Cade Ziegler finished 5th and 6th to lead KM, followed by Rogan Leistiko and Jackson Braun. All 4 received individual awards as they were all top 15! A great day for KM, and more to come next week as the Lasers head to Arrowhead for what will be a blazing fast meet!

Route 66 was featured in the Disney movie, Cars! As a matter of fact, many of Route 66’s real-life attractions are featured in this Disney movie. You can see variations of Cadillac Ranch (Cadillac Range), the Wigwam Motels (the Cozy Cone Motel), and U-Drop Inn (Ramone’s).

In 1908 Henry Ford started making the Ford Model T, nicknamed Tin Lizzie. This model, the first genuinely mass-produced car, became accessible to the general population and changed the industry forever.
