KHS Community Update

January was a great month here at KHS. We were very busy with Snowcoming, winter sports, Zehnder’s Snowfest, Robotics, Weightlifting, a Kindness assembly and kicking off our second semester. I want to thank all of the mentors and coaches who sacrifice their time for our students, so we can have amazing clubs and athletics here at Kingston.

Please continue to monitor your child's grades through Skyward. We do offer after school tutoring every Monday thru Thursday from 3-4.

If you have any questions or concerns please feel free to contact me:

Good Day,

Students will have the option to take an in house practice PSAT/SAT. This practice test will be on February 16th in the morning and a survey will be sent out in early February for students to opt in or out of taking this test.

The School Improvement Team has created a new exam exemption procedure for the second semester of this school year. This procedure was shared with students in late January. Please review the document and contact Mr. Seaman if you have any questions.

Mrs. Flikkie took two teams over the Zender's Snowfest in Frankenmuth this year. The teams competed in the high school snow sculpting competion. Both teams did amazing job on their sculpture. Thank you to the mentors and students for making this event such a sucess. Great job!!!!

The Engineering Club is off to a fantastic start for 2024. We received a grant for $500 from MISTEM that the club plans to use for creating a presentation/demonstration for the elementary school on a STEM-related project. Additionally, we are currently working on two projects for our competition with Square One. The junior high team is participating in the miniature innovative vehicle design competition where they must use a 1/10 scale radio-controlled vehicle to perform various tasks. The high school team is participating in the autonomous innovative vehicle design competition where they have to use a power wheels car and make it drive by itself, performing various tasks like self-parking and accident avoidance. The competition for both teams happens May 3rd, at Kettering University.

The Robo CARDS have been busy building their robot and preparing for this years competition. The Robo CARDS will be competing at Kettering and CMU this year. Thank you to the mentors and students for all of their hard work to make this program a success.

We are planning to have a FAFSA night on February 5th from 5:30-7:30 here at the high school. Please sign up in the office so we know if you and your parents are able to attend. If you are unable to attend in person, you can join virtually from home. You and your parents/guardians will need to make sure you have created your FSA ID's in order to work on your application.

Please reach out to Mrs. Bundschuh if you have any questions. tbundschuh@kingstonk12.org
