Dear Key MS Families,
Today is the last Friday of the school year! We are winding down and finishing up with the last days of school. Please remind your students to check their lockers and look under their bed for any missing library books. The books were due Friday, May 31, 2019. Students should check with all of their teachers to make sure there isn’t any work that needs to be completed or turned in. We look forward to a peaceful last week and a positive summer send off for our students.
