Good Afternoon Kaycee Families, We are quickly approaching the end of the spring semester for the 23-24 school year. As the year comes to an end, we will be completing semester testing in the last week of school. Attached is the Semester Testing Schedule for grades 9-11. As you can see, we will begin our day for 9th to 11th grades on the 21st and 22nd at 8:30 am and end our day at 2:37 for testing. Students are welcome to stay for the test make up period and finish any late or missing work or to complete a semester exam or project. Our intention with having semester exams or projects is to prepare students for higher learning beyond high school. Please note Seniors last day will be the 22nd and so their semester finals will be completed earlier in the week. If you happen to have any questions please feel free to contact our office. Thank you, Jake Evans Kaycee Principal JCSD#1 Perkins Coordinator

FFA held it annual Auction last week. All 31 members were sold at the Kaycee FFA Work Auction. They will work an 8 hour day. The majority were bought by local ranchers to help them with branding, docking and fixing fences. Justin Mayfield was the auctioneer. A free chili supper was provided by the FFA. This was a huge fundraiser for the chapter and the support from the community was outstanding. This auction is held about the same time every year so if you was unable to attend this year, mark your calendar for next year.
