 August 15, 2022 Let’s Grow Together!
“But grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To him be glory both now and forever! Amen.” 2 Peter 3:18, NIV Let’s Grow Together! These words based on 2 Peter 3:18 are our theme for the new school year and are a daily reminder to our students and entire KML family that God’s blessings abound when we grow in the grace and knowledge of Christ. That blessing is both for us personally and for those around us. As we grow, we also have the opportunity to live how God designed us to live – his way. What an impact we are able to have in this world who needs Jesus more than ever!

Installation Service Join us in person or via livestream on Friday, August 26, at 9:07 AM as we offer our praise to God for allowing KML to begin the 49th year of instructing our youth in the truth of God’s Word. New faculty members will be installed during the service:
Visitor Policy Update To ensure a safe school environment, KML has partnered with a third-party company to screen all visitors prior to their admittance to the school building. Visitors who plan to go beyond the Main Office should make sure they have a state-issued photo ID along with them prior to entering the building. If you are picking up SCRIP or dropping off an item for your student, this does not apply. It is only applicable if you plan to go beyond the Main Office. Thank you in advance for your cooperation!
KML Charity Golf Outing a Great Success
The KML Foundation hosted the annual Charity Golf Outing on Monday, July 18, at the prestigious West Bend Country Club. Once again, God blessed the day with great weather and great fellowship as we enjoyed some golf and a fantastic opportunity to support the KML Foundation and ultimately KML’s student assistance fund. The response was amazing as we hit a record level of support and raised more than $50,000! All proceeds are added to our Fairway Fund which provides funding for KML student assistance.Thanks to our sponsors, donors, and participants for making this a special event which will have a lasting impact. View more photos from this year’s golf outing at kmlhs.org/golf.
