From the Principal’s Pen

Dear KML Family,

It’s easy to take many things in life for granted. What a blessing to have our student body with us (virtually and face to face) to start this school year! Our KML faculty and staff are literally giddy with excitement to do our work with our KML family of students. We look forward to a school year that feels and looks a little different, but is filled with God’s blessings. Thank you to our students for making a gospel-motivated effort to follow our procedures as we do everything we can to enable face to face instruction for as many students and families who choose it.

God Bless,

Principal Luehring

SCRIP News

Wow! So many new families are signing up to use the SCRIP program for the first time! It is truly exciting to see them realize the financial benefit of doing so! It is never too late to get started with SCRIP! If you are not a current SCRIP user, maybe now is the time to become one. When you purchase SCRIP, you are earning credit toward your student’s or future student’s tuition and other fees.

Purchasing gift cards from our on-hand inventory (complete listing at www.kmlhs.org/scrip) is one option available. Items found on the www.shopwithscrip.com website can be ordered as well. Many of the retailers also offer re-loadable cards and/or the purchase of online certificates so you can get your SCRIP instantly, without even having to leave home!

The KML SCRIP office is open Mondays, Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays from 8:00 AM – 3:00 PM whenever school is in session. Please stop in and check us out!

Questions about SCRIP? Contact the SCRIP Office (scrip@kmlhs.org).
