Happy Wednesday, students, parents, families, and friends of KMS. 

This week’s Principal’s Message is a short one. If you have not had the chance to view last week’s message, please take a moment to review the Bi-Weekly Newsletter that I shared. Additionally, if you have 5 minutes to carve out for the latest addition to the KMS communication toolbox then I suggest last week’s Between 2 Knights (B2K) podcast. 

Reminders:

• Behavior support: if your child utilizes school transportation, please take a moment to remind them of appropriate behavior expectations on the bus. Most frequently, behavior reports that we deal with as administrators relates to inappropriate language, unsafe behavior (standing or moving around bus), eating food (not allowed on buses), leaving trash behind, etc. Failure to follow expectations could lead to loss of transportation privileges. 
• Now is a great time for parents to check grades of their student(s). If you have not yet accessed the DSIS Parent Portal, you can get information by accessing the DSIS Parent Portal tip sheet. If you need assistance, contact the KMS front office. If you have questions about a grade, contact your child’s teacher. 
• No school for students on Monday, September 23^rd. Our teachers will be engaged in professional learning. 

Have a fantastic remainder of the week.
