🚗 After-School Pick-Up Traffic (3:00–3:40 PM)

To help reduce congestion and keep everyone safe during afternoon pick-up, the school board is asking for your help with traffic flow between 3:00 and 3:40 PM.

Please follow these guidelines:
➡️ If you are parked in the parking lot, turn left when exiting or go straight down a side street
⛔ Please avoid going northbound on 7th Ave when leaving the parking lot
⛔ If you are using the pick-up loop, avoid going south on 7th Ave
➡️ From the loop, turn right when exiting or continue down a side street

These small adjustments will help traffic move more smoothly and keep students, families, and staff safe during our busiest time of day.

Thank you for your cooperation and patience! 💙

Senior Night 🟡

Tonight we celebrate our Kenmare-Bowbells Honkers Wrestling seniors.
Years of early mornings, hard practices, tough matches, and unforgettable moments have led to this night. You’ve represented Honker wrestling with grit, heart, and pride, and your impact on this program will last far beyond the mat.

A huge thank you to the families behind these athletes. Your time, dedication, sacrifices, rides to practice, support in the stands, and belief in this program are the foundation of Honker wrestling. This success belongs to you too.

We are grateful for every moment you’ve given to the Honkers and proud of the legacy you leave behind. 💛
Once a Honker, always a Honker.

Dear Honker Families,

The windchill is supposed to continue tomorrow and into the weekend. If you are uncomfortable sending your child to school tomorrow, or are unable to get them to school safely, their absence will be excused due to the weather. An absence tomorrow will not count toward the 10 allowed absences for highschool students. If your child is unable to attend tomorrow please notify us by calling the office in the morning or filling out the online absence form.

Please say safe and warm, Honkers!

Kenmare Families & Community — We Need Your Input!
Last year, Kenmare Public School sent out a survey about the possibility of a four-day school week. Based on the results, there was enough interest from families to continue the discussion and gather more information.

At this time, no decisions have been made. Our goal is simply to better understand current community thoughts, concerns, and possible benefits as we review state requirements and research from other districts.

Please take a few minutes to complete this short survey. Your feedback will help guide future discussion and planning.

Survey Link: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScMoc-OrDNx_C-5pd2embbeZEUJIna8CdSOy0-h_Cbn8jwr1A/viewform?usp=dialog

Thank you for partnering with us and for supporting Kenmare Public School!
