KMMS DAILY ANNOUNCEMENTS

DECEMBER 14, 2023 - Blue day

PLEASE STAND FOR THE PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE

I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America, and to the republic for which it stands, one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.

DECEMBER'S THEME IS "GIVING BACK"

The Waukesha County Community Foundation has a simple goal: to improve the quality of life within the community.  They do so by receiving charitable donations from people in Waukesha County and then offering grants to local agencies such as: YMCAs, community centers, places that assist the elderly or people with disabilities, and groups that provide relief to those in need.  Since its formation in 1999, the Waukesha County Community Foundation has donated more than $45 million to charities in our area! 

ATTENTION MEDIA CLUB STUDENTS

Please stop in the library during your Laser Hours or SDL times (and only with teacher approval!) today to record some of the clips. AND then don’t forget we have our meeting today after school in the library to put it all together. :)

KM LACROSSE PLAYERS

Sign up now! Winter skills registration is now open for all KM Lacrosse players who want to hone their skills and be ready for the spring season. It’s also a great way to try the sport for the first time. Open to all boys and girls - youth through high school.
