Hello KMMS families,

I want to use this week’s post to congratulate our students, families, and teachers on our state report card. Our report card states that KMMS “Significantly Exceeded Expectations” last school year. This is a testament to our teachers and support staff, the support of our parents/guardians, and of course, to our students who are growing and learning. 

You can view more details at the Department of Instruction’s website: DPI Website. Some of the details you will see are nothing short of remarkable. For example, 100% of our students grew in their math scores last school year as compared to their like-peers in the state of Wisconsin. 

We have some of the most talented and dedicated teachers I have ever come across. If you have a moment, please send them a message acknowledging their work. They really care about your children, and the results here at KMMS are some of the best in Wisconsin. 

Best of luck with your snow removal today. Take care,

Matt Kitzerow

KMMS Principal

SAFETY TIPS FROM DEPUTY CATTANI 

Happy Friday KMMS Families! 

Welcome to Safety Tips from Deputy Cattani! Every so often, I will be including some safety information in the newsletter. These tips will range from safety concerns at the school, to information that will be useful to implement in your households. 

This week we will be focusing on traffic safety regarding student drop-off and pick-up. Below I have included a diagram of the proper route you should be using. When arriving to the school, you should always be entering from the West Entrance as the Central Entrance is closed for buses to arrive at the facility and safely load/unload students. You should then stop at the designated drop-off/pick-up area on the south side of the school, near the soccer fields. Expect to be stopped for buses to leave the campus. You will then proceed past Dousman Elementary and out the East Entrance. 

We should not have any parents entering the Central Entrance from 7:00-7:20am or 2:25-2:45pm (1:55-2:20pm on Thursdays). Additionally, the parking lot between KMMS and Dousman Elementary is for staff/visitor parking only, it is not an alternative location for parents to utilize for drop-off/pick-ups.

Please note that when arriving for afternoon pick-up, to prevent a back-up on Ottawa Ave., the West Entrance will not be opened until 2:40pm (2:07pm on Thursdays). Please plan accordingly, we cannot have vehicles stopping at the closed entrance, slowly driving by, or stopping further up the road, as it impedes normal traffic conditions.

These rules only apply during normal drop-off/pick-up times. 

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me at (262) 965-6500x2064 during school hours.

Learning Lab - Mon-Wed @ KMMS

Learning Lab meets in the library right after school until 4:00 on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Wednesdays. The purpose of Learning Lab is to give students a chance to get their homework done in a quiet, safe, supervised place after school. You do not need to sign up ahead of time - just show up! If you are still in the building after school, it is expected that you are in an activity like Learning Lab, and that you are participating and getting work done!
