Let’s Grow Together Campaign Update Our primary goal for this year’s KML gala was to raise money for our Let’s Grow Together campaign. God continues to bless us with overwhelming support and gifts through you to help expand KML in a much needed way. As we forecast yet another year of record enrollment, your faithful support will help to expand overcrowded spaces for our current students and allow us to serve more students as we continue to have a growing enrollment.
$4.66M as of April 27, 2023 THANK YOU! Goal: $10M by June 30, 2024
We are so grateful to our Lord who continues to bless us with your prayers and gifts towards our Let’s Grow Together campaign. Thank you for responding to God’s blessings and helping more students attend KML for a safe and Christ-centered education. For more information, visit kmlhs.org/grow or contact either President Jamie Luehring (jamie.luehring@kmlhs.org) or Director of Mission Advancement Wendy Breimon (wendy.breimon@kmlhs.org). The time is now. Let’s Grow Together!
An Evening in Paris Gala a HUGE SUCCESS!
THANK YOU for your generous support of the KML ministry through KML’s 2023 gala, An Evening in Paris. We truly appreciate your support which helped make this year’s gala a record year. Initial estimates indicate a net income of over $173,000. Proceeds from this event will be split with a portion going toward the Let’s Grow Together campaign and a portion to the student assistance fund, ultimately allowing more students to attend KML for a safe, quality, Christ-centered education. Thank you once again for being a part of the KML family and helping our students. With your continued support, we can continue to carry out our mission of educating for life and for eternity.

Host an International Student in 2023-24
KML is seeking families to host international students for the 2023-2024 school year. The number of host families that we have available determines the number of international student applications we will be able to accept. In exchange for a stipend of $750/month, host families provide housing, meals, and transportation from early to mid-August through the end of the school year. KML’s international students are required to have a high-level of English fluency, but they may at first struggle to communicate. Many of them experience American culture for the first time when they come to KML, and our foods and customs may take them time to get used to. Host families need to be patient, understanding, and open-minded about the addition of an international student to their family. Applications for hosting for the 2023-2024 school year need to be submitted by May 25, 2023. If you are interested in serving as a host family, please visit kmlhs.org/hostfamily for more information.
