STUDENT OF THE WEEK

Congratulations to our most recent Student of the Week – Abby Webster.

KRHS WELLNESS EXPO

One of our school goals this year was to improve our students’ mental and physical wellness. We have begun working on this goal through the development of our Student Wellness Committee, increasing the amount of time spent on the mental health components of our curriculum, hosting Wellness events during evening hours, and our activities during our December Month of Caring. This semester, we are planning a “Wellness Expo” on Tuesday, Feb. 20, from 8:30-11:30 a.m. The goal is for students to participate in activities which are of interest to them and promote wellness, from yoga and painting to dirt bike maintenance and basketball. Lunch will be provided.

TEACHER/STAFF APPRECIATION WEEK

Thanks to all students and parents for the delicious treats and kind gestures during Teacher/Staff Appreciation Week. We are certainly appreciative of the efforts of so many students and parents for helping to make Teacher/Staff Appreciation Week special.

On Feb. 23, the Grade 10s and 11s will be going to the P.E.I. Potato Expo and on a Bioscience tour.
