Principal's Post

Hello KMMS families, 

“It’s a great day to be a Laser, when we hold ourselves accountable” is our December theme. As part of our December theme, all students will have a video message from their counselors and a House Talk with their principals. 

We are committed to helping middle school students grow their sense of accountability—to themselves, their classmates, their teachers, and their school community. By helping our students make plans to follow through with their responsibilities and understand their own impact on themselves and others, we ensure all students receive the best education possible. Our KM community's big strength lies in our engaged and supportive parents who hold their children to high standards. This is a special school community to be a part of. Thank you for all that you do!

From the Health Room

Healthroom Graphic

While we are seeing many different illnesses in the district, which is typical for this time of year, we have seen an increase in pneumonia in all of the Kettle Moraine schools,  as well as statewide.

Pneumonia is an infection of the lungs. Most pneumonia is caused by bacteria or a virus. People with pneumonia usually complain of coughing, mucus production, fever, fatigue,  shortness of breath, and/or chest pain.  It is important to monitor your child and keep them home if they become ill.  If you suspect pneumonia based on the signs or symptoms, see your doctor as soon as possible. Please inform your students' health room of a pneumonia diagnosis. 

It can be difficult to know when a child is too ill to attend school. Our illness guidelines provide you with information to help guide your decision.

A student with the following symptoms should stay home:

  • Fever of 100.4 degrees or higher (must be fever free for 24 hours without the use of fever reducing medication). 

  • Vomiting (any episode within last 24 hours)

  • Diarrhea/Watery Stool (any episode within the last 24 hours)

  • Persistent cough producing mucus or shortness of breath

  • Sore Throat accompanied by a fever or body aches and fatigue

  • Feeling lethargic or ill where they cannot participate comfortably in school activities. 

Please reach out to the health room with any questions or concerns.
