Hey, sophomores and juniors! Interested in checking out the Kent Career Tech Center? KCTC now has a Virtual Tour where you can explore its programs right from school or home. If you’re interested in attending KCTC, completing the tour gives you priority enrollment and makes you eligible for an in-person program tour. The deadline is November 20. Check out the tour at kentisd.org/ctevirtualtour, and be sure to complete the survey when you finish. See Mr. Wilson if you have any questions!
Attention Students: Both the KCHS Student Handbook and Michigan law prohibit student cell phone use during instructional time. If a student has a cell phone out during class, the teacher will confiscate the phone and turn it in to the main office. Once a phone has been confiscated, a parent or guardian must come to the office to retrieve it. Students will not be permitted to pick up their own phones. Additionally, refusing to turn over a cell phone when directed by a teacher will result in one day of In-School Suspension (ISS). This consequence also includes social probation, which is new to KCHS this school year. These expectations are in place to protect instructional time, minimize distractions, and maintain a positive learning environment. We expect all students to follow the policy and cooperate with staff when reminded. Thank you for doing your part to keep our classrooms focused on learning!
Attention Student and Staff: Please check your email for an AI survey sent by Mr. Stuhan. Responses are due by October 23rd!

Our Eagle harriers drew their CSAA season to a close with their final conference jamboree at White Cloud. The girls’ continued their dominance by finishing 1-2-3-4 and then grabbed 7th, 8th, and 9th places! The Eagles had 17 points compared with Lakeview’s 2nd place 56 points. Elli Max finished her second consecutive season as the CSAA White Champion, and Shelby Zimmer was the runner-up! Joselyn Vogel claimed 3rd, and Bayla Curtis gutted it out for 4th. Kelsey Elsner, Brooke Scheidel and Audra Niemi were our second pack and were all still in the top 10! The boys’ cross country team claimed runner-up honors to Lakeview this season. Lakeview scored only 22 points with KC behind with 47, but White Cloud had 63. Koda Worley led the Eagles tonight with his 8th place, but Emmett Elsner and Kyle Hull were 9th and 10th. Then the Eagles really packed it in with Brayden Bloom in 13th, Luke Tyers in 14th, Levi Neeley in 15th, and David Cox in 16th. Eli Gee was steady in 21st.
Congratulations to the Kent City girls golf team for receiving the Academic All State Team Award, which is given when the team's GPA is 3.5 or above. Great work in the classroom ladies.
