Karns City Area Junior/Senior High School

Our junior high students participated in the 12 Days of Kindness this month. It was a fun way to reward students for showing kindness toward others.

Each day students had a chance to earn a kindness ticket for helping others, being kind and going above and beyond. A winner was selected each day from the tickets that were turned in. As a reward, the winners got to watch a movie while enjoying a snack and hot chocolate. 

A few select high school band students recently visited Karns City Area Elementary School and the Chicora Medical Center to play Christmas carols for the students and residents.

Four students represented Karns City at PMEA District 5 Honors Band! The festival concluded with a concert on Saturday afternoon. The students -- Brayden Dinger and Kira Cutway on flute, Conrad Dunlap on trumpet and Owen Black on French horn -- were each selected by audition on a collegiate level solo. Congratulations!

Many students, staff, parents, and alumni of Karns City enjoyed performing with the Kittanning Community Band for their winter concert series!

On November 21m students in grades 7-12 wore blue and participated in a few activities to show support for Children's Grief Awareness Day.

Representatives from The Highmark Caring Place visited Karns City several times over the last few months and facilitated lessons with all our students on how best to support your peers who are grieving.

It's hard to believe the winter season is just around the corner. As we prepare for the possibility of inclement weather this year, please take a moment to review our winter weather procedures. This page outlines our two-hour delay schedule and our plan for moving to remote instruction if a physical school closure becomes necessary.
