Class of 2020 Orientation

The transition between middle school and high school will begin for the parents of eighth-graders at freshman orientation taking place Jan. 14 at 6 p.m. in the Kenston High School auditorium. This first informative evening will focus on course selection and scheduling for next year. Representa-tives from the high school administration, guidance and academic departments will be available to answer specific questions.

Gold Cards Available

All residents of Auburn and Bainbridge who are 60 years of age or older may obtain a free, lifetime “gold card,” which will admit them free of charge to any school sponsored event in which students participate, including home athletic events, musical and dramatic performances.

Gold cards are not valid when an event is sponsored by an organization other than the schools (P.T.O., Booster groups, etc.) as a fundraiser. Cards cannot be used for athletic events such as conference, regional or state playoffs. Gold card membership can be obtained at the Kenston Board Office, 17419 Snyder Road.

Emergency School Closing

In case of severe weather or calamity requiring school to be closed, an official announcement will be made via an AlertNow phone call to the homes of families with children attending the Kenston schools. If you are uncertain about school closing, you can call 440-564-2134 or log in to www.kenstonlocal.com for up-to-date information. The message is updated by 6:30 a.m. when conditions warrant.

If school is closed due to weather, all activities and athletic contests are canceled whether home or away.
