September is Attendance Awareness Month! "Be Present, Be Powerful!" is this year's inspiring theme from Attendance Works. KSD is dedicated to encouraging all students to arrive on time and attend every class. Being present is crucial for unlocking their full potential and ensuring the best opportunities for success. Let’s work together to make every moment count and harness the power of consistent attendance!

Reminder: All KSD buildings and the Administration Center will be closed today, Wednesday June 19, in observation of Juneteenth.
Also known as Freedom Day, Juneteenth honors the end of slavery in the US and marks the day federal troops arrived in Texas in 1865, a full two and a half years after the signing of the Emancipation Proclamation.
Tassels have been moved, hats have been thrown and graduation photos have been uploaded! Check out the albums today!
