FAQs

School hours are 7:56 a.m.—3:10 p.m., Monday through Friday. Please ensure that your child shows respect for his or her teacher by always being on time.

We sure do! We expect all of our students to remain well groomed and neatly dressed at all times. We believe that wearing neat, clean clothing helps students feel good about coming to school and learning. We forbid any form of dress or hairstyle that is not in accordance with our expectations. We prohibit the wearing of shorts as well as any revealing, immodest, or inappropriate pieces of clothing. Shirts must remain tucked in at all times. The dress code applies to all school-sponsored events. We appreciate all KJHS parents in helping to enforce this standard.

We understand that circumstances occasionally arise that necessitate a schedule change. We will only grant this change, however, if it is absolutely necessary. You must obtain approval for the change from either the principal or the assistant principal.

Administration of medication is an extremely sensitive issue. For this reason, all medication is controlled and administered by the school and must be registered with the front office. This includes such common medications as Tylenol, Tums, Motrin, etc. The only medication that the student may self-administer is prescribed medication for asthma.

We do not, at any time, allow students to possess any electronic device that may become a distraction. We will confiscate (and assess a $25 fine for) all cell phones, electronic gaming devices, cameras, and other such devices if found at school or on the bus. To recover any confiscated item, the parent of the child must bring $25 to the office in exchange for its release. We will not release these items to students, and we reserve the right to destroy any unclaimed items after 30 days.
