Kenmare-Bowbells Honker Activities for the Week of September 16


Here is a look at what is going on at Kenmare Public School for the week of September 16.



Family & Community Guides to the 2023 ND Math & ELA Standards: Now Available
The North Dakota Department of Public Instruction (NDDPI) is excited to announce a new resource document for schools, families, and community members. The Family & Community Guides are designed for individuals outside the education field who are invested in students' learning experiences. These guides provide an overview of what students will learn at each grade level, offering insights into classroom activities and suggestions for supporting learning at home.
The guides are organized by grade level to align with the typical school structure, except for High School, which has a single guide each covering grades 9-12. Available in PDF format, these guides can be easily printed and shared, making them accessible to families and community members.
The North Dakota Content Standards serve as a model to establish teaching and learning goals, outlining the knowledge and skills students should achieve at each grade level. While local school districts choose the specific curriculum to meet these standards, the Family & Community Guides present a simplified version for parents and community members. These guides provide a basic understanding of the expected skills and learning experiences, complementing the more detailed standards written for professional educators.

KPS can take fresh fruits and vegetables to serve if anyone has extra from their gardens to give away. If you'd like to donate, please contact Lindsay Bazille, our head cook. Thank you in advance!


🍽️Free-Will Pre-Game Tailgate🍽️
Farmers Union Oil Company of Kenmare, Bowbells, and Powers Lake will be serving Hamburgers, Chips, and Macaroni Salad.
Serving will start at 6pm and go until the food is gone.


On behalf of the Student Health Clinic and Counseling Center at Minot State University, we would like to invite you to attend a public speaking engagement on Monday, September 30, at 7pm in the Ann Nicole Nelson Hall (Old Main building) at MSU. Angela Kennecke, a former investigative reporter from Sioux Falls, SD, will be sharing her daughter Emily’s Story. Emily passed away three days before she was scheduled to be checked into a treatment facility. Emily died after receiving a fatal dose of a substance that was laced with enough fentanyl to kill six people.
Please share this flyer with your students, parents, family, and friends. We welcome students of all ages to attend this event, in hopes that Emily’s Story can provide impactful public awareness to our community.
