Winter Weather Driving
As our winter weather approaches us, please:
Remove ice and snow from all windows, mirrors, and lights
Do not drive too fast for the conditions
Use your headlights
Don’t use cruise control as you need to maintain control of acceleration and deceleration at all times
Remember 4-wheel drive doesn’t work on ice
Give yourself extra time to drive to and from school safely.

Blood Drive | Friday 1.12.24 | 8a-1p
Key Club will be hosting a winter blood drive on Friday, January 12th. Please consider making an appointment to donate that day.
We chose to use the Red Cross because they have a scholarship program based on how many pints we collect during the year. We combine with Student Senate drives, and last year we received $1,000 that we awarded to students. The more successful donations, the higher the award!
Thank you for considering, please let Mrs. Gill gilla@kmsd.edu know if you have any questions.
CLICK HERE to schedule an appointment.
Cold Weather vs Computers.
Do not leave your computer in the car overnight when it’s below freezing! Below-freezing temperatures can cause permanent battery and LCD screen damage.
Bringing a cold computer into a warm environment can cause condensation inside the device. Condensation inside your computer can cause additional damage to hard drives and other components.
If you do forget and leave your computer in freezing temperatures do not use it right away. Allow your computer to slowly come to room temperature again before powering it on.
School computer warranties do not cover replacement batteries and only cover damaged screens once.
