GREETINGS FROM E-TECH ADMINISTRATOR
Welcome Back Collegiate Scholars,
This is my 4th year at Kimball High School ETECH Collegiate. I am certainly glad to start another year with staff and students. The collegiate teachers, administration and staff are excited to have our students back for another school year. We welcome our new class of 2026 - 9th grade. We look forward to working with all of our scholars. We are excited for what this year will bring to our departing class of 2023 - seniors. I anticipate many great challenges, new projects, scholastic achievement and enjoyable events to happen. I would like to challenge all scholars to get involved in school activities and make your priority LEARNING. Remember to persevere and be resilient in all that you do. This will be an amazing school year. Our ultimate goal is to ensure our collegiate students are college, career and workforce ready. Enjoy your school year 2022-2023 and remember Kimball Knights we always seek the best.
