As we all
know, weath-
er plays a
huge factor in
transportation
to KSD. Re-
cently we’ve
discovered
this can also
affect stu-
dents being
fed.
Therefore, to
ensure stu-
dents are fed,
please make
sure students
are fed prior
to leaving
home if they
will arrive
past one of
these times.
Breakfast can
be provided
up until
10AM.
Lunch can be
provided up
until 1PM.
Dinner can be
provided up until

KSD Elementary School held its first Math Bee of the school year on October
20th. The Math Bee was divided into four competitions. All of the KSD Elementary
students, except the preschoolers and kindergarteners, participated. Five dollars in
cash and an award certificate were given to the winner from each one of the four
competitions. Light buzzers were utilized throughout all the competitions.
The winners from each one of the four competitions were Dakota Cox, Kalissa Pur-
vis, Apollo Tunstall, and Alyson Tucker. Congratulations to these four students for
their achievement.
KSD Elementary School’s second Math Bee will be held on January 12th at
