Mr. Head's 2nd grade class had fun with their activity books for Ag Week.




Around 36,000 students state-wide and from southwest Iowa participated in the 2026 Spelling Bee. 66 participants qualified for the regional Bee in Omaha last Saturday. Our Longhorn, Taryn Rohaley, narrowly missed the top 9 seats for the oral spelling rounds to secure a chance at Scripps National Spelling Bee. She placed in the top 35 and better.
Thank you for representing KPS with your spelling abilities! That is certainly something to be proud about!

Mrs. Mekelburg's 2nd grade class enjoyed their activity books for Ag week.

Wow! Mary Lynch's family and friends have surpassed all Book Blast expectations. Because of your generosity, 1,303 books will be going home with students in the next few weeks, and 7 teachers earned $100 shopping sprees for their classrooms.

Lots of smiles, giggles, and wide-eyed moments...especially because of the calf slobber! 😂 A big thank you to the Hottell family for the opportunity to make these connections with the impact of agricultural in our everyday lives! ❤️










Today, in Reading, we are learning about how a seed grows! Since it is Ag Week, we decided to plant some of our own! 💚🫛
