Good Morning KMS Sports Community, 

Fall is here - leaves are starting to turn color and the mornings are crisp! Our teams are hard at work and busy with games and practices.  Thank you to all who have come out to support our athletes and take in a game or meet.  Here are a few reminders as we move forward with Fall sports, home games and after school events:

Parents pick ups - Parents should pick up their players at the football tower after school, after practices and after games.  Please DO NOT LINE UP BY THE SAU9/KMS/Rec Courtyard. This creates a traffic jam and can easily be avoided. This is especially important for Football player pickups. 

Students must be accompanied by a parent when coming to watch a game or meet and must be with them at all times.  Students are not permitted to stay and hang out after school unsupervised.  

Parking for Games/Meets: Parents should park by Conway El and walk to the sports fields or wait by the football tower for athletes after games/practices.  There are minimal parking spots in front of the cafeteria - please leave these spots for our elderly/physically impaired spectators. If you need additional assistance for elderly or physical impaired spectators - please contact KMS Athletic Coordinator Gredel Shaw or your coach.  No Parking in bus lanes at any time, please.

Reminder that there are NO DOGS allowed at or on our athletic fields.  

If your student-athlete is not feeling well, please keep them home. 

Please be sure to take all trash and garbage with you when you leave. Wild critters often get into the garbage and make a mess. Kennett Middle School is a carry in/carry out facility when garbage cans are not available.    Please leave our facilities as clean, or cleaner, than you arrived. We are fortunate to have such a great facility and hard working grounds crew.

 All fans must be respectful to the home and away athletes, coaches, teams and umpires/referees at all times.  Heckling, poor sportsmanship and/or rude behavior will not be tolerated and you will be asked to leave.  Kennett Middle School is always in need of referees and umpires - if you feel that you can do a better job, please contact the Athletic Coordinator's Office, we are happy to get you in a game. 

Late buses leave promptly at 4:45.  Please make sure your student-athletes are on a late bus or picked up at this time on practice days.  

We have some of the most beautiful and scenic fields in the state.  Enjoy the view while you make your way to the fields.  Please be aware of the Conway Scenic Railroad when crossing the tracks  - the trains do have afternoon runs.   

 Please reach out to your individual coaches with any sport specific questions!
