Students at KPCS are learning about gardening and food preservation. Last year students in 7th grade planted the school garden and freshman tested the soil to create an organic fertilizer plan. The garden looks great and is producing well!Today students enjoyed fresh watermelon and tomatoes at lunch. In agriculture class, junior high learned about canning tomatoes and freshman are working on a salsa recipe in our updated classroom. Huge thank you to everyone that made this project possible!

Keya Paha FFA Officers got to spend some time in the Black Hills planning for the upcoming year. Along the way they got to make a few stops at the Days of 76 Rodeo, Homestake gold mine, downtown Deadwood, and Lake Pactola. We would like thank all our sponsors and supporters for making trips like these possible! Travel is one of the best forms of education.

🏈 WE NEED YOU! BECOME A PART OF OUR FOOTBALL FAMILY! 🏈

The countdown to the season is ON, and our boys and coaching staff have been absolutely tearing it up this summer! 🔥 They’ve been sweating, grinding, and putting in the work every single day.

The energy is incredible, and we are ready to line up and give it everything we've got—but we need two more dedicated mentors to help us guide them. We are officially on the hunt for:

💼 1. Assistant High School Football Coach
We need someone who values grit, growth, and character. If you are ready to lock arms with a hardworking staff, bring positive energy to the field, and push our varsity boys to be the best athletes and teammates they can be, we need you on our sideline!

🧠 2. Junior High Football Coach
This is where the foundation is built! We are looking for an enthusiastic leader who is fired up about shaping young minds and turning these kids into football masters from the ground up. Your mission? Teach the fundamentals, build unwavering confidence, and show them what it means to play with pride.

Please share this post and help us find the perfect coaches for our boys! 💪
