Mr. Bestor and Mr. Tomczyk had fun giving Becca S. and David T. their athletic awards in the Laser Locker with Olivia D., Bri B., and Violet K. who help run the store! Thanks to all for helping with morning announcements today.

Starting TODAY (Monday), Miss Cressy and Mrs. Hooper will begin revealing next year's KM All-Campus and KM Perform musical selections. There are currently over 30 contenders... Will it be Matilda? Shrek? The Sound of Music??? All are welcome to stop into the choir room (A20) every school day at 2:40 pm (2:10 pm on Thursdays) to watch a title (or two!) get eliminated and shorten the list of contenders. The final reveal will take place at 2:40 pm, in the choir room, on Tuesday, June 7. If you can't make it after school, stop into the choir room anytime to check out the progress. See you this afternoon!

Two Kettle Moraine seniors came up with the idea of making athletic suicide awareness hoodies to bring attention to the increase in athletic suicides and mental health. Together, they came up with the sayings and hashtags along with their brand name: Athletic Suicide Hoodies.


100% of proceeds are planned to be donated directly to NAMI, the National Alliance on Mental Health at the end of the school year. The senior's goal is to sell 40 hoodies which would put the donation amount at $1,000.


ORDER NOW! Hoodies are in production and will be sold for 2 weeks. They will be available for pickup after the orders are completed.


Follow their instagram, @athleticsuicidehoodies, for updates and more information. Thank you for supporting their mission.

KM SENIOR NIGHT IS BACK! After a two-year hiatus, Kettle Moraine seniors will again get to experience this memorable tradition at KMHS on Friday, June 3 from 8 pm - 11:30 pm. Senior Night is a free, fun-filled night for Kettle Moraine seniors to celebrate their time at KM. The event includes great prizes for all who attend, fantastic entertainment (hypnotist, carnival games, inflatables, dunk tank, raffle, and prizes), and terrific food (Chick-fil-A, Rocky’s, and Culvers).

HOW TO GET INVOLVED?
While the night is just for the KM senior students, we rely on parental support to make it happen. We need to raise approximately $10,000 to keep the event FREE for those who attend. While the senior night committee is already busy soliciting support from the community, area businesses, and KM organizations, historically approximately 75% of the funds raised come from generous parent support.

DONATING IS EASY!

  • Select the “Fees” option from the left-hand menu
  • Click the “Optional Items” box, next to the “Print” box at the bottom of the page
  • Find HS Senior Night Donation and click “Add to Cart”
