Today was the first Pathway to Careers Seminar for students in grades 7-12. Most of the presenters were alumni of Keshequa and their presentation was not only about their careers, but also how Keshequa is a great launch pad for post high school plans. Our students found the two sessions they attended very informative. Thank you to all of the presenters for giving their time to come and speak during this busy time of the year.
We would love to see you at our Winter Music Concert tonight but if you are unable to be there in person, you can find the live stream on our KeshCommunications Youtube channel.
Pep Assembly November 2022
As part of Character Strong, our students in grades 9-12 have written or will be writing letters to our military in appreciation of their service. Here are some excerpts:
"Without your bravery and support, we wouldn't be the country we are today."
"Your bravery and ambition has not gone unnoticed."
"I hope this letter gave you a moment of happiness and I hope you have some amazing days."
"Your work is more than appreciated, it is saluted."
"People like you make it easy for me to feel safe."
"Knowing the risks and still continuing to serve is truly heroic."
"You are part of the reason I love my county so much."
Thank you, Veterans.
Starting today through November 13th, the Secondary Building will be lighting green lights in the second floor windows facing the road. This is to show support for Operation Green Light, a movement to light one green light to show veterans that they are seen, appreciated and supported. Thank you to our veterans, both past and present.

Good Afternoon,
We became aware of a situation today involving a student that had made a threat. The District immediately implemented the District Safety Plan. We worked alongside law enforcement and safety experts today and it was determined that there was no credible threat to the school and its students. A letter to families can be found in the News Section of our website.
Character Strong Wellness Walk with Mrs. Bajus: Students observed creek flow, wooly worms , tree walking in the woods and identifying tree types based on leaves. Everyone had a fun time!
Today, grades 9-12 had a variety of wellness activities that they could select to participate in while the 7th and 8th graders did a lesson from Character Strong. Students could choose to take a nature walk, make fruit pizza or fruit smoothies, play board games, participate in soccer or dodgeball, learn about music and sleeping, gaming and an art activity. In addition, one of our teachers, Madison Bugman, spent part of the summer in India and taught students games from India. It was great that the weather cooperated and our students were energized for their afternoon classes.
