KMS Fall Play

November 22nd at 7:00pm
November 23rd at 2:00pm and 7:00pm

We invite you to spend an evening with one of the most beloved children’s stories of our time. Joseph Robinnette’s adaptation of the classic E.B. White novel shares all of the warmth and heart of the unique characters who inhabit the Zuckerman farm. This incredible tale of friendship, full of laughs and adventure, is perfect for audiences of all ages. 
BOKS IS BACK

BOKS is a great morning activity program designed to wake us up and prepare for a day of learning.  BOKS will run every Monday and Wednesday morning at KMS - 7:05-7:35, starting 9/16/19. Students will get the chance to play games and run around with new and old friends. The day is structured with an independent warm up, free play/skill skill activity, running activity/game. This fall we will be incorporating a bit of our new Spartan (obstacle course) curriculum in addition to our old favorites. Join us for the fun in the morning. See virtual backpack for online or printed registration forms. Forms should be returned to the KMS office.
Thank you - Heather Chase and Jen Hart
