Proud to support the schools and excited for kids to begin using these flex spaces!

It’s a big week for Firebirds! An exciting addition this year to KFMS is a flex space within each unit. Students and staff have the opportunity to test out furniture and different uses of the space as the design phase of the new buildings continues. All materials have been donated by patrons at no cost to the district—this way, when the time comes, the district will know what works and what might not before using district dollars. Thank you KCS Forward Foundation and Ruetschle Architects for making this possible!
