Kindergarten celebrated 100 Days of School last week! It was so much fun! We made hats with 100 things on them, counted by 10’s and 1’s to 100, did 100 exercises, ate a “100” snack, made necklaces with 100 beads, tried stacking 100 cups, saw what it would look like to be 100 years old, and thought about what we would buy with $100! We even compared Kindergarteners now to Kindergarteners in 100 yearsJ.

The 8th grade math classes are creating dilation cartoons this week. The students will be taking 4 inch cartoon pictures and recreating them as 4-7 foot cartoons. Each student will be working with a scale factor and testing their measuring skills. The kids will be documenting their progress on iPads, to share with the community at the end of the project. Follow the KMS facebook and twitter accounts to see their amazing final projects.

Paper copies of KHS's annual local scholarships are available in the school counseling office during February. Most all applications are due back to the counseling secretary by March 1.

The KPSF (Knoxville Panther Scholarship Foundation) application is the scholarship which every student who has applied in the past has received. This scholarship is also available in the school counseling office. Become familiar with the organization's website at www.kpsfoundation.org. The KPSF scholarship is renewable during the four years of college after high school. The website is where you will access annual scholarships after high school.
