The National Association of Pupil Transportation program was created to encourage individuals involved in school transportation to enhance their knowledge about transporting students of all ages with disabilities. To earn the CSNT, Mrs. Coniglio took a series of professional development courses, presented on the topic of special needs transportation at a state conference and concluded with a final exam.
KCS Presents “Radium Girls”
“Radium Girls” tells a true story about young women poisoned by radium in the 1920s. Hired to paint watch dials with luminous radium-laced paint and witnessing her friends getting sick and feeling symptoms herself, one young woman begins her fight for justice against the company who denies any culpability.
Performance dates are Nov. 11-12 at 7 p.m. and Nov. 13 at 2 p.m. in the Robert A. Lee Auditorium.
All tickets are $8 and all seats are reserved. Ticket sales begin online Nov. 1 on the KHS homepage. To avoid all ticketing fees, tickets may also be purchased at the entrance to the Bomber Café during lunch blocks. Tickets are also sold one hour prior to curtain, but carry an additional $1 processing fee per ticket.
