Good evening, Kenmare Families. Due to high wind warnings forecasted for tomorrow, buses will be cancelled for the day. School will remain in session, so if your child is unable to make it in, please call the office so we can make sure all students are accounted for. Additionally, any finals scheduled for tomorrow may be rearranged as needed. We appreciate your flexibility and understanding. Please stay safe and we will see you soon.

📋 Back-to-School Immunization Reminder for Kenmare Families
As the school year wraps up, now is a great time to make sure your child's immunizations are up to date for the 2026-2027 school year.
North Dakota requires all K-12 students to be current on vaccinations — or have an approved exemption on file — by October 1st. Students enrolling after October 1st have 30 days to comply or they must be excluded from school.
Heads up for parents of incoming 7th and 11th graders — those grade levels have additional requirements (Tdap and MCV4) that kick in at those transitions.
A few helpful tools:

Docket app — ND parents can use this free app to view their child's immunization records, get reminders, and print an Official Certificate of Immunization.
Your healthcare provider — most ND providers automatically submit records to the state immunization system, so your child's records are likely already on file.

Full requirements are available in English and Spanish at HHS.ND.GOV. If you have questions about what your child needs, contact your healthcare provider or the First District Health Unit (FDHU) for more information.
Let's get kids ready for a healthy fall!

🎉🚛 BIG congratulations to Kenmare students Kole Herman, Gage Holter, and Sloan Ethen on earning their CDL through the Minot Area Workforce Academy!

This is an incredible accomplishment and a great example of students taking advantage of hands-on career and technical education opportunities that prepare them for success beyond high school. We are proud of the hard work, dedication, and commitment these students showed throughout the program.

A huge thank you as well to Scott Faul and Pam Stroklund for helping bring this opportunity to our students at Kenmare Public School. Partnerships like these continue to create meaningful pathways for our students and future workforce.

Way to go, Kole, Gage, and Sloan! The future is bright! 🚚💨 #KenmareHonkers #CTE #WorkforceReady #CDLSuccess
