Hello KMMS Families,
This is a reminder that students and families should enter their elective preferences in Infinite Campus by Monday, February 23rd. Please review the 7th and 8th grade registration guides, which outline elective options you can discuss together. Our course description guide provides more detailed information about each class.
Yes, I’m going to use the old cliché that this school year is flying by. We have just five weeks until spring break, and only 7.5 weeks left in the school year after we return. Thank you for partnering with us to help your student finish strong this year while also planning ahead for next year.
Have a great weekend, Matt Kitzerow

KMMS Mathletes Sweep Gold at Regional Math 24 Competition |
|
|
Watching a student solve a Math 24 card is remarkably similar to watching a speedcuber solve a Rubik’s Cube. Fingers move in a blur, and the puzzle seems to solve itself—but look closer, and you’ll see it isn’t luck; it’s high-speed pattern recognition. Just as a cuber recognizes a specific orientation of colors and executes a muscle-memory algorithm to snap them into place, these students look at a deck and see mathematical algorithms doing gymnastics, searching for the right face to turn.
The competition showcased two distinct levels of mental agility. While sixth graders mastered the Integers deck, navigating the core relationships of whole numbers, seventh graders tackled the daunting Fractions & Decimals deck. To those new to Math 24, seeing a student instantly process a 1/8 fraction and seamlessly integrate it into a multi-step equation to reach the target of 24 is nothing short of wizardry. Whether multiplying by the reciprocal or finding a clever common denominator, these young mathematicians proved that with enough practice and passion, any numerical puzzle can be solved with elegance and speed.

KM Community Center Programming Survey |
|
|
Our planning team is making wonderful progress on the new Community Center at the Magee Campus and will start offering programming for the 2026-27 school year. As part of this process, we are looking for input from our KM Community on offerings and schedules that most appeal to you.
Please visit: https://forms.gle/tdf3x9Z84sfQ14At7 to complete the Community Center survey by February 27th.
This survey is open to everyone, residents and non-residents of all ages, who may be interested in utilizing the Community Center. Pre-school, senior and adult programming are an important part of this planning, so please share this link with family and friends who do not currently have children in school. Community vitality thrives when learning doesn’t stop at the classroom door. At Kettle Moraine, we see education as a lifelong journey—one that is enriched by recreation, connection, and shared experiences across generations. By intentionally designing programs that meet real community needs, we are creating spaces where learning feels natural, accessible, and welcoming. That belief is shaping the vision for the new KM Community Center at the Magee Campus.
