Kearney Middle School

In an effort to help support our hybrid students on their non-attendance days, we are going to start allowing students to sign up for the use of our library on their off days.  We will have a staff member present, but the primary goal is to provide a quiet structured place with reliable Wi-Fi for students to use. We plan to begin this program on Monday, November 2nd.

We will be offering two sessions per day Monday – Friday:

A morning session from 7:35 to 10:00

An afternoon session from 12:00 to 2:20. 

Students using the morning session can provide their own transportation or use school transportation to get to school but will need to have their own transportation home at 10:00. Likewise, students in the afternoon will need to provide their own transportation to school and would have the option of personal or school transportation home at 2:20.

All students will have the opportunity to get a school lunch and morning session students will have access to both breakfast and lunch. Meals will not be available on Wednesdays.

In order to provide this to as many students as possible and to allow for proper social distancing, students will need to schedule an appointment due to limited space.  Students or parents interested in taking advantage of this opportunity will need to call the office at 628-4115 each week to reserve a spot.  Students requiring morning bus transportation will need to schedule their day/times by Thursday of the preceding week.
