KMS added a new elective course this year called College and Career Readiness which is taught by Mr. Uitermarkt. Students who have taken this class first semester have researched and learned about hundreds of jobs available to them in their future. Recently, the 6th-8th grade students completed the last career cluster on STEM careers. They made a 3-D project to represent their chosen career. Here are a few projects that the students completed and then shared through an oral presentation to their classmates.






Thank you for your hard work Mrs. Downing and Mr. Pearson.
