Greetings From Principal Rowell
This time of the school year seems to be very busy with many school related events. These events range from various holiday concerts, preparing our students for graduation, starting the winter athletic seasons, and giving back to the community through community service projects.
We invite you to enjoy the concerts, and to come out to support our athletic teams who have started out the season very well.
Student success comes by many measures, and the state accountability report card scores are just one of those measures. Our students in both the Middle School and High School continue to excel and our school report cards indicate a rating that significantly exceeds expectations. We thank you for your continued support and partnership as we work to develop well rounded students. We are proud of how our staff work diligently and with intention to bring the mission statement alive as they inspire inquiry; engage hearts, minds and bodies; and achieve success.
As the end of the semester is quickly approaching, we encourage our students to end strong and to continue to remain engaged with school, being in attendance, and getting assignments submitted.
On behalf of the staff at Kohler Middle and High School, we want to wish our families a wonderful holiday season. It is our hope that you are able to find time for some rest and relaxation while making great memories. We look forward to seeing you in 2023.
Emergency or Inclement Weather Closing Procedures
As we begin another year, it is once again time to review the procedures for school closing due to inclement weather. We ask parents to discuss this issue with their children now – before the actual emergency occurs. If you are generally not home during the day, be sure your child knows where they are to go if school closes early: Will they go home with a classmate; an older sibling; or a relative? Have you made prior arrangements with this individual to be on “standby” for these occasions? Please make your arrangements in advance and be sure that your child is fully aware of what to do in case school closes early.
Parent Night with National Speaker: Brian Williams

I recently traveled to Grand Canyon University in Phoenix, Arizona on their campus Explore Trip. I learned a lot of valuable information about the campus and their philosophy to better help and advise students thinking about or committing to this school.
I hope to tour more campuses as a counselor that I am unfamiliar with and that are popular schools for our students to attend.
I would like to congratulate both Sophia Zhang and Amber Hess on receiving a Women in STEM Merit Award from Michigan Tech’s SWE program.
Finally, safe travels to all students and families during the holiday break. I hope this time provides you all with relaxation and a reset to finish out the second quarter positively. As always, please contact me with any questions or concerns about your student.

Athletic "sKoop" from Mr. Sprenger
The winter sports season is officially in full swing, and it has been a great start to the season for our athletics. Our basketball teams have been playing very well, and I have been thankful for all of our fans that have been showing up to support the teams. I hope we continue to pack the stands throughout the season! We also co-op in boys swimming and boys' hockey and things are going great for our athletes that participate in those sports. It should be a great winter season for Kohler athletics and I am excited to see what our teams can do this season!
