Ken-Ton UFSD

Congratulations to our @KenmoreEastHS and @KenmoreWestHS unified bowling teams as they wrapped up their seasons at the NFL and Niagara Orleans area Section VI Tournament! We're so proud of all you accomplished!

This morning, @KenmoreEastHS put on a special first-half performance of "Little Shop of Horrors" for Franklin Middle Gr. 6 students. Afterward, they came on stage and answered any questions FMS students had about the show and what it's like to be a part of the KE theater program!

This month, students are sampling a Blueberry Pie Parfait thanks to our Farm to School Program! This parfait features blueberries, vanilla yogurt, granola, and NY Maple Syrup from Belle Hollow Farms. This item will also be available during breakfast the week of March 23rd.

Vote for Mr. Towey!! Our own Patrick Towey, band director at @KenmoreWestHS, is up for the Manilow Music Teacher Award! You can vote once per day here: on.barrymanilow.com/trk/mmpbuffalo

For the first time, the Purple Pinkie Project came to Holmes Elementary as the KW Interact Club painted fingers purple to raise awareness and money for Polio eradication. Thanks to matches from the Kenmore Rotary & Gates Foundation, a total of $870 was raised!

It's National School Breakfast Week and, with breakfast being free for all students, we're proud to serve around 2,400 meals each morning across our schools! This week, there's a special blueberry maple yogurt parfait along with the everyday favorites in all our grab & go carts!

Here among my people! Thank you to @ECASBnews for arranging a meeting with school district reps, coinciding with @nyschoolboards's Lobby Day in Albany. We talked about busing, student mental health, the importance of equitable funding, and more. Time well spent, always.

It's been all about heart health in PE classes at Lindbergh Elementary! The school held their annual Kids Heart Challenge as they learned about heart health, jumped rope, and enjoyed orange slices! This year, the school raised more than $7K for the American Heart Association!

Congrats to the girls bowling team for finishing 5th overall at today's Section VI Tourney! @kebulldogs Julianna Schmitt & Cailyn Willard finished 1st and 3rd respectively in the individual standings and will represent Ken-Ton & Section VI at the NYSPHSAA Championships in March!

Ken-Ton Farm to School Coordinator Nicole Zugelder is serving up another delicious taste test item! This month, students are sampling crunchy veggies with a honey mustard dip using honey from Honeyworks Apiary in Freedom, NY! This item will be in the lunch line on February 26th!

Over the last few weeks, Edison Elem. held their Links4Love campaign to raise money for the Ken-Ton Schools' SleepOut with students purchasing links for $.25 each. We're proud to announce that this campaign raised $1,600 dollars that'll be donated right back to our community!

Throughout the day, students at Franklin Elementary made Valentines for Veterans on behalf of the Gold Star Mothers! These handmade cards will be put into Valentine's Day bags for local veterans and we're so honored our students will be a part of this incredible project!

Due to the ongoing winter storm which is impacting all of Western New York and the State of Emergency declared by Gov. Hochul, Ken-Ton Schools will be closed tomorrow (Monday, January 26th). This includes all after-school and athletic events. Please stay warm and safe.

Over the weekend, the @kenmorewesths Varsity and JV girls basketball teams volunteered at the Assumption Church Soup Kitchen in the Riverside-Black Rock area to help out the homeless. The players served lunch, dessert & helped clean up after a very rewarding experience!

Out of an abundance of caution, because of the unpredictability of the weather conditions the region will face & the cold temperatures and windchill expected, Ken-Ton Schools will be closed tomorrow (Tuesday, Jan 20). This includes all athletic events and activities as well.
