As many of you know, Kenmare Public School is transitioning from PowerSchool to Infinite Campus for the upcoming school year. We have scheduled registration to allow our administration and office staff time to complete the rollover and ensure everything is working smoothly before families begin registering.
We appreciate your patience and understanding as we make this exciting transition! Our goal is to provide a smooth and efficient registration experience for everyone.
📅 Don't forget! The first day of school is Wednesday, August 19!
We can't wait to see everyone back in the halls. Here's to another fantastic year at KPS! 💛

To help keep our facilities in top condition, the Kenmare Public School Gym and Weight Room will be closed for maintenance from July 27 through August 2.
🚫 Please stay off the gym floor during this time. This includes all individual workouts, open gym activities, and any other use of the gym. Staying off the floor is essential to allow the maintenance work to be completed properly and to protect the newly finished surface.
We apologize for any inconvenience and appreciate your patience and cooperation as we work to keep our facilities safe and looking their best.
Thank you for your understanding!

Don't forget! All student-athletes must have a current sports physical on file before they are eligible to begin practice. Now is the perfect time to schedule your appointment if you haven't already.
Fall Practice Start Dates:
⛳ Girls Golf: August 3
🏈 Football: August 6
🏃 Cross Country: August 10
🏐 Volleyball: August 17

Due to a lack of registrations and limited volunteer availability, we have made the difficult decision to postpone our K-2 Basketball Camp that was scheduled for July 14 to 16.
While we were looking forward to spending a few evenings in the gym with our youngest Honkers, we simply didn't have enough interest or helpers to make the camp a success.
Our hope is to reschedule the camp sometime after the start of the school year when more families and volunteers are available. We'll be sure to share details as soon as a new date has been determined.
Thank you to everyone who showed interest and to those who were willing to help. We appreciate your understanding and look forward to seeing our young athletes on the court soon! 🏀💛
