In the event that a middle school student is required to quarantine, their teachers will provide instruction for them each school day.

 Teachers may choose to:

• live-stream their class via Webex
• post a video lesson and/or independent work directions in Schoology
• communicate directly with students via email or phone

The instruction method may change from day to day based upon the learning activities planned for the class, and teachers will inform students of the chosen method.

For Webex sessions, students should log into the teacher's Webex class at the start of the class period. All teachers have posted their Webex links in Schoology for student access; students are familiar with this from Distance Learning.

For video lessons and independent work directions, students should log into Schoology for the class to watch the video and access and complete the assigned work.

Administrative office staff will send details about student learning expectations to the families of quarantined students.

 

Jump Start is an opportunity for new 6th graders to spend part of a day with their classmates and KTMS staff members before the school year begins.

At Jump Start, students will learn their schedules, find their way around the building, learn how to open their lockers, meet staff and students, and learn more about how everything works at KTMS.

REGISTER FOR JUMP START NOW TO RESERVE YOUR CHILD'S PLACE.  Registration closes July 30, 2021. 

Note: We will send you a confirmed date with a request for payment during the first week of August 2021.
