KFMS 5th and 6th Graders Explore Thermal Energy
Our scientists are diving into their Thermal Energy unit! Students began their inquiry by comparing insulated and non-insulated cups to investigate heat transfer and the power of insulation.
Throughout the unit, they’ll use what they learn to explore how thermal energy moves in the world around us—and why it matters. Love seeing our Bulldogs thinking like real scientists! 🧪🔥🐾

A Friendly KFMS Baseball Bet… and a Big Win for Tyson! ⚾😄
All fall long, Tyson and Mrs. Vining went back and forth over who was better: the Yankees or the Mariners. The final showdown came down to the MVP race—Aaron Judge vs. Cal Raleigh—and Tyson came out on top!
As part of the deal, Mrs. Vining had to wear his Yankees jersey for the entire school day, and Tyson now gets bragging rights until Opening Day 2026.
Somewhere, Cal Raleigh is still the real MVP… but today, Tyson definitely was. #GoMariners #CalRealMVP

KFMS Evacuation Drill
This month, KFMS practiced an important safety drill—evacuating from the building to Gibson Field. An evacuation drill helps ensure students and staff know what to do if it ever becomes unsafe to remain on school grounds.
Although the rain tried to slow us down, it didn’t stop our students or our dedicated staff from completing the practice with focus and determination. In a real emergency, students would remain at Gibson Field until they were safely reunited with families through parent pick-up or bussed home.
Thank you for supporting our ongoing safety efforts as we work to keep our Bulldogs prepared and protected. 🐾💛💙

🎃 Pumpkin Launching in Science! 🚀
Mrs. Bolt’s 7th and 8th graders took on a Pumpkin Launcher Challenge this week! Using only rubber bands, tongue depressors, a plastic spoon, and a candy pumpkin, teams engineered mini-catapults to see who could launch the furthest.
Students saw science in action as potential energy turned into kinetic energy, and learned how small design changes affect force, motion, and distance.
A fun mix of creativity, teamwork, and hands-on learning! 🧪🐾

📚 Student-Led Conferences Are Coming! 🎉
KFMS students are hard at work preparing for Student-Led Conferences, and they can’t wait to share their learning with you!

Our 5th graders are loving their new digs — especially at recess and PE! 🎉
