PLEASE READ - IMPORTANT This is an excerpt from the letter sent to all campus students and families on Wednesday evening:

We are very focused on slowing the spread of COVID-19 on our campus. If we want to stay open, we will need the cooperation of our students and families. Therefore, we are putting a pause on non-essential experiences on the HS campus until November 9th. The following precautions are being taken in order to slow the spread on the HS campus:
  • Student attendance at sporting events will not be granted. Unfortunately, this includes the football game on Thursday night. We understand this is disappointing for our students and we want our students to know that we remain committed to finding ways to celebrate the traditions that are important to our KMHS student community. While these experiences will look and feel different moving forward, and many may not take place during the time period they have traditionally been held, we will continue to work with our student body to create those experiences and memories moving forward.
  • The KMHS music department’s Costume Ball/Tune-or-Treat that was scheduled to be held on Saturday, October 31st, is being canceled. The students involved in the planning and leadership of this event were engaged in the discussion regarding the cancellation and they are looking forward to holding an event in the future when numbers dictate a safer environment for a large community event.
  • All clubs on the KMHS campus are being asked to shift to fully virtual meetings. Regardless of group size, no after school club meetings are to be held in person.
  • While the remaining few weeks of the fall sports season are taking place, and only a handful of sports teams are still engaged in competition, we ask that those teams continue to practice the mitigation strategies that have been put in place, continue to practice social distancing, and utilize cohort groupings in order for teams to successfully wrap up their seasons and engage in postseason competition.
  • We respectfully ask that students not gather in the evenings and weekends with friends. If gatherings do take place, we ask that students practice social distancing and wear masks in order to help slow the spread.
