The Kingston Community Teachers' Association has cancelled this evenings "Meet the Board Candidates" forum due to several candidates being unable to attend due to illness and family obligations. KCTA will be working with the candidates to put together a Q&A document for board candidates to answer that will be shared with the public prior to the election in April.
Our JH Student Council sponsored a Kiss the Goat contest in which students earned points for every food item they brought in to be donated to the Elks Backpack Food Drive.
Our students brought in a total of 878 items. Out of those 878 items, 870 were donated towards Dr. Krisher quickly launching him to the top spot for kissing a goat. Dr. Krisher kissed both "Goldie Hawn" and "Chicken Nugget the Fourth" during an assembly held for the entire student body.
We would also like to thank the following teachers for participating in this challenge:
Ms. Brown, Mr. Dane, Mr. Ross, Mr. Schupp, Mrs. Shore, Mrs. Logan-Hollis, Mrs. Amy, and Mrs. Thomas.
Great job Junior High!

Due to the tragic passing of longtime Kingston educator Mrs. Susan Heuer and her husband, Mr. Henry Heuer, the Kingston School District will be closed on Monday, March 16 so that our faculty, staff, and community members may attend the funeral Mass and pay their respects.
Mrs. Heuer dedicated more than 30 years of service to the students of our district before retiring, impacting generations through her work as a teacher and volunteer. Mr. Heuer was also a familiar and supportive presence in our schools and community through his volunteerism.
This loss has deeply affected our school community, including many staff members who worked alongside Mrs. Heuer and the Heuer family. In addition, Mr. and Mrs. Heuer are the parents of Dr. Jennifer Boyster, Assistant Superintendent, and Mrs. Suzanne Merklin, Assistant Principal. Closing school on Monday will allow our staff and community the opportunity to honor their lives and support the family during this difficult time.
Classes will resume as scheduled on Tuesday, March 17. We ask that you please keep the Heuer, Boyster, and Merklin families in your thoughts and prayers, and we thank you for your understanding during this difficult time.

Some bus routes may be delayed this morning due to flooding as we use caution in getting our students to school safely. We have driven roads and moved some debris from some roads and most of our routes are passable at this time. Drivers will use caution and if there are any questionable areas routes may be slightly altered.
Read Across America week is next week, and we are celebrating with special days.
