With less than a week to go in the school year, we are staying motivated and focused on our academics. As you already know, the ending of the school year is just as busy as the beginning of the Fall.
KIS Achieve participated in Right to Read Week and enjoyed each morning listening to the student readers share the biography of Dr. Benson Bonyo. Dr. Bonyo is a physician in the Akron area and believes in education. He will be visiting KIS this week and we will sing a song for him.
This year's student program, Career Fair at KIS, is well under way this week. So far, the students have seen WEWS Channel 5 News Anchor Macie Jepson. Macie’s kids attend Kenston and she was so excited to talk to the students. The lesson we learned from her was to follow your dreams and never give up. She also told the kids to never let someone put you down or make you feel bad about yourself. Guest speakers will be visiting KIS on May 19, 22, and 23. Students will be selecting sessions based on their interests.
The kids also wrapped up their Nature Scopes Binoculars program with a field trip to The Rookery. Nature Scopes is a comprehensive, year-long program aligned with Ohio Science Education Content Standards. It reached 90 percent of county fifth-graders this year, with a goal of reaching 100 percent by the 2015-16 school year.
