The Kings Local Schools Board of Education voted to remove the mask mandate for Pre-K through 6th grade beginning Tuesday, January 18, 2022.

The District will still continue to be mask-friendly and strongly recommend the wearing of masks while in our school buildings.

Thank you for your cooperation.

The Kings website has been cleaned up a bit and it looks a bit brighter! We launched the new design TODAY. We will be making tweaks and edits and removing any "bugs" in the site over the Winter Break.

We hope you like it!

Congratulations to Kings Junior High School Science teacher, Vonda Fruhwirth who was named Teacher of the Month from the Columbus Blue Jackets!

Because of that recognition, she has been selected to be a part of the Most Valuable Teacher (MVT) program featured on NHL.com and only one of the 20 nominees across North America chosen for January’s Future Goals MVT!

This annual event's mission is to increase the number of women that pursue STEM careers. It is the second year Kings High School has hosted a virtual site. Students get to participate in a two-hour seminar but also have the opportunity to be partnered with a mentor in a STEM career field. Currently, only 24% of students participating in KHS Computer Science and Engineering classes are women. Teacher, Sam Mizener said, "This is part of my goal to increase that number to 50%."

Pictured below are: Breauna Gause, Renee Perpignan, Kayley Knollman, Kaitlin Niebauer, Maura Hart, Lily Mueller, Paige Dwyer, Katie Gabert, and Natalie Norgren.

Peachjar is live on our website! In case you missed it last week, we will be using a new platform to distribute school-approved flyers.

Parents will receive a weekly email of the most up-to-date flyers posted on the flyer board.

Anyone wishing to post to the flyerboard will need to register at peachjar.com as a program provider and upload their pdf flyer and select schools for distribution. There will be a nominal fee for organizations that are for profit. All non-profit organizations whose event is to directly benefit children and who are not charging a fee for the event may use Peachjar free of charge. Peachjar’s cost is typically less than that of printing and distributing paper flyers.

Thank you for supporting our efforts to ensure parents are well informed about school programs, activities, and events!

QPR is a program designed for anyone who may be in a position to prevent suicide. By learning QPR, you will come to recognize warning signs, clues, and suicidal communication so you can identify if a child/teen is in trouble and act vigorously to prevent a possible tragedy.

Kings Mills Elementary fourth-graders made the holidays a little easier for many families in our community! 

Students, staff, and their families donated cleaning supplies that benefited 125 families. There were enough items donated that will be given to Kings Kloset for families in need.

The KME Food Pantry received several donations that will allow KME School Counselor, Keri Perdrix to distribute food to KME students who need weekend food and food over the holidays.

They also delivered breakfast items to the Kings Food Pantry. KME 4th-grade teacher, Lynn Jenkins said, "The woman at the Food Pantry commented that our donation each year is one of the best and she really looks forward to it!"

Way to go, KME!
