The Kenowa Hills STEM Academy is now accepting applications from any student who will be in 8th, 9th, or 10th grade next year. This unique program offers a transformative approach to project-based learning in core math or science class. Hardworking, motivated students find success in the STEM Academy as it offers an authentic educational experience that gives them 21st-century skills and is just plain fun!
Interested students can get an application from the middle school or high school office or fill out the form below.
All high school athletes must have a physical on file with the athletic office dated on or after April 15, 2023, to participate in a high school sport at Kenowa Hills High School. Each athlete will need the following items to participate:
Once all necessary documents have been submitted in FinalForms, and payment has been submitted to the Athletic Office, athletes will receive a pink Permission to Practice form. The Permission to Practice form should be given to the coach on or before the first day of practice/tryouts.
Please direct any athletic department questions to Vicki Bekins, vbekins@khps.org
Knight Athletic Department is very excited to announce that the high school & middle school have partnered with FinalForms, an online forms and data management service. FinalForms allows you to complete and sign athletic participation forms for your students participating in athletics.
FinalForms saves data from season-to-season and year-to-year, meaning that you will never need to enter the same information twice! FinalForms also pre-populates information wherever possible, for each of your students, saving you time.
You may review your data at any time to verify it is current. You will be required to sign your forms one time a year and after any updates. Click on the Parent Playbook below to get started in FinalForms. The playbook will walk you through how to register as a parent/guardian and your student-athlete.
We are asking ALL parents of athletes to use FinalForms starting this upcoming 2023-2024 fall season. At this time participation fees will be paid in the athletic offices of your appropriate school prior to the start of each sports season. Please register at FinalForms and follow the prompts to create your account, create your students, and sign all your forms prior to the first day of fall sports on August 7, 2023.

TRANSPORTATION BEFORE AND AFTER SCHOOL CAREOur Personal Mastery educational experience has redefined education and has gained attention around the state and nation. Personal Mastery provides your child with personalized attention from teachers. Instead of teaching to a broad group of students without an understanding of their individual strengths and weaknesses, Personal Mastery allows teachers to interact with students individually or in small groups to help them better address their weaknesses. In this way, we strive to help your child reach their full potential.
