Dear KMS parents,
As you may be aware, there have been rumors circulating today about the threat of school violence based on a picture of a written threat on a wall which has been shared as if it’s a photo of a KMS wall.
Please know this has been investigated by our School Resource Officer and local law enforcement. This photo, which warns of a threat, is not from our buildings. This photo has been circulating on social media across the country and caused similar rumors and reactions in many other schools and school districts.
We will continue to monitor this situation and we will have increased law enforcement presence tomorrow.
Thank you

You will first choose either "in-person" (if you want to meet at KMS) or "virtual" (if you want to have a Microsoft Teams meeting), then you will be able to choose a date and time between now and Christmas break. https://tinyurl.com/KMSPEPS
We will be conducting a mandatory drill this afternoon between 1:15 and 2 pm. If you need your student, please pick them up prior to or after the drill. You will be unable to do so during the drill. Thank you for your understanding.
Good evening KMS Families
Students are getting ready for Red Ribbon Week® 2021 – this year’s theme is: Drug Free Looks Like Me. At school, students will engage in activities that promote a drug free and healthy lifestyle. Please partner with us and discuss this message at home, at the dinner table, at family outings, and with friends and extended family. Ask your child to show you the flyer
he/she received from school about Red Ribbon Week® on Schoology.
Buses 92 and 58 will not be running today. We're sorry for any inconvenience.
Keyser Middle School Families
All students have been given the opportunity to receive a school issued device. It is imperative for students to bring devices charged to class for daily work along with their chargers when they come to school. We do not have extra chargers for student to use when they forget to charge their device. The school has also provided every student with their own earbuds but students may bring their own earbuds to use.
