Our SODA (Student Organization for Developing Attitudes) students did an awesome job volunteering at the 4th grade Colonial Day celebration today. They spent the day helping out in classrooms while the 4th grade teachers led sessions on colonial life.

The kids loved having them there, and our SODA students jumped right in wherever they were needed. We're so proud of how they represented KWHS!

From Budgeting to Buffet!
What a fantastic experience for Ms. Compton's and Mrs. Funai's students! They successfully executed a full Thanksgiving Feast—from start to finish!

This project was a great lesson in practical math and real-world budgeting. The students planned the entire meal, created a shopping list, and stayed within budget while shopping for all the fixings at Food Lion. We are so proud of their teamwork and skills!

The feast was delicious, and it wouldn't have been possible without our wonderful community partners. Thank you so much to Food Lion and Mrs.Yolanda Smith for generously donating the turkey and ham! Your support truly elevated the experience.
