📚 KMS 7/8 Families – We Need Your Support!

Our Youth Leadership Council students had an incredible learning experience on their recent field trip to Discovery Place Science!

Led by Ms. Russell, our 7th and 8th grade students explored interactive exhibits, engaged in hands-on STEM activities, and expanded their thinking beyond the classroom. Opportunities like this allow our students to connect leadership, curiosity, and real-world learning in meaningful ways.

A special thank you to Cabarrus Health Alliance for supporting this experience and continuing to invest in our students’ growth and leadership development.

We are proud of the way our students represented KMS 7/8 and took full advantage of this opportunity!
