We urgently need a parent to volunteer to be our KMS/PTO Music Dept Liaison! Mr. Balogh is running a wonderful music program at KMS! He wants to do a fundraiser but still needs a parent willing to take on the Music Dept Liaison role (help the Music teachers, events & fundraising). Email info@kennedycougarspto.org if you would like to help Mr. Balogh. 

Parent volunteers are welcome on-campus at RCSD schools to help with the on-campus events! Please fill out the volunteer form and find volunteer requirements here. https://www.rcsdk8.net/careers/volunteer

If you are approved to volunteer at a different RCSD campus, please let Jennifer Sandoval jsandoval@rcsdk8.net know that you would also like to volunteer at Kennedy!

We will need to include a visual component to the student musical performance. ALL STUDENTS are invited to submit photos or videos from the school year of them practicing their instruments, participating in zoom class, returning to campus, signing, completing a class assignment… be creative! It can be anything, does not need to show your face and can be from any point during this school year (does not need to be newly created).

Students will receive an entry into a prize raffle for every item submitted, even if we don’t end up using them in our video presentations. This means that the more photos or videos that you share with us, the better your chance of winning.

Top prize is a $50 Hillsdale mall gift card; 2nd prize is a $25 Ross gift card. You can send your entries via email or drop here: https://www.dropbox.com/request/Dh2GqGRPwkt6Ge1fax1f.

Necesitaremos incluir un componente visual en la interpretación musical del estudiante. TODOS LOS ESTUDIANTES están invitados a enviar fotos o videos del año escolar de ellos practicando sus instrumentos, participando en la clase de zoom, regresando al campus, firmando, completando una tarea de clase… ¡sea creativo! Puede ser cualquier cosa, no es necesario que muestres tu rostro y puede ser de cualquier momento durante este año escolar (no es necesario que sea de nueva creación).

Los estudiantes recibirán una entrada en una rifa de premios por cada artículo enviado, incluso si no los usamos en nuestras presentaciones de video. Esto significa que cuantas más fotos o videos comparta con nosotros, mayores serán sus posibilidades de ganar.

El premio mayor es una tarjeta de regalo del centro comercial Hillsdale de $ 50; El segundo premio es una tarjeta de regalo de Ross de $ 25. Puede enviar sus entradas por correo electrónico o dejarlo aquí:
