KSTM Science Fair 2021

  • Phase 1 of Science Fair is will be wrapping up October 13 in science classes. Your students progress can be discussed at Parent Teacher Conferences on October 13 or 14. See times above.

  • Students will be invited to Phase 2 of the process which will be a collaborative discussion between staff members, the student, and their parents/guardians if they choose to participate.

  • We are excited to bring back the school-wide science fair and showcase the awesome scientists in the making that we have here at KSTM.

We will recognize and reward students from every grade level for earning DoJo points! Students earn DoJo points in their classes for being:
  • Respectful
  • Responsible
  • Safe

WEAR A MASK!

All KSTM students were given 5 new washable masks this school year. Please make sure your student is wearing a mask to school every day. Masks are also required on school buses.


Health and safety is our priority. To protect students, staff and families, our district updated face covering requirements for the start of the 2021-22 school year. Students, staff and visitors must wear a face covering while inside our school. We care about our students, and we can work together to limit the spread of COVID-19. Our school will have face coverings available for those who need them.

BRING A CHARGED IPAD DAILY!

A charged iPad is an important learning tool for every student, every day. Remind your student to bring their charged iPad to school everyday.


  • If your student does not have their iPad they must check in with the main office to make our building technology support aware.
  • If it was left at their elementary school last year, please contact the elementary school to ask that it be sent to KSTM.
  • If it was lost or stolen additional information will be provided to parents about the steps that need to be taken.

BRING A WATER BOTTLE!

Our water fountains are not operational this school year. Students are permitted to bring a water bottle to school and are allowed to refill it throughout the school day.
