KMECO PLASTIC RECYCLE CHALLENGE!
KMECO believes #KMNation can rise to the challenge to help keep plastic waste out of landfills and help our environment! KMECO is one of our KMHS Campus clubs. They are always looking for new ways to make a positive impact on our environment and to make our school even more sustainable.
The challenge goal is to collect 1,000 pounds of plastic in a year. If the goal is achieved, NexTrex will send our school a bench made from recycled materials!!!
Three bins have been placed throughout the school with one right inside the building just beyond the front lobby entrance.

KM DECA ANNUAL FOOD DRIVE!
The annual food drive for KM DECA began on Tuesday, October 15th, and runs until Monday, October 28th this year.
The drive has been happening annually at Kettle Moraine High School for over 50 years and we have expanded its positive effects on our community since then. Students who are a part of DECA or who are in one of Mr. Dellis' marketing classes have the opportunity to give back to their community by distributing bags for food donations in nearby neighborhoods and then collecting the filled bags to be transported to Waukesha Food Pantry to help those in need.
We are very thankful to Pick 'N Save for providing the bags we use for collection and Target for providing the trailer that transports the food to Waukesha Food Pantry.
Last year we collected 10,000 pounds of food and this year our goal is to collect 11,000 pounds!
One important aspect of our DECA chapter is community service and the annual food drive is one of our many service activities.
Stay tuned for our Holiday Drive coming soon!

LASER LOCKER HOURS!!!
NAME THAT AUDITORIUM!!! Our auditorium renovation is getting close to completion, and it is time to start thinking about naming this beautiful venue. While we have a generous naming sponsor, their hope is that our students have ownership of the project and select the name. So we are calling on our KM Community to start the process by submitting your naming suggestions. The submission process will close November 20th. Then, our team will narrow down the options to a group of preferred names for students to vote on. The final name will be unveiled at our grand opening early next year. To submit your naming ideas, visit: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSe-hz8SWDP2r2Vqyf5XI2MkYUG29ljEMe9VGxiqVyR3ql3URA/viewform?usp=sf_link
