As we delve into the second week of this school year, I want to thank our students, parents, and staff for the smooth transition! We were also excited to welcome our kindergarteners on Tuesday. It’s so great to see our newest Wildcats and their excitement as they begin their first year of school!

We are in desperate need of both permanent and general substitute teachers! Permanent substitutes are guaranteed work five days a week at $130 a day. We understand that you may have weekly or bi-weekly commitments, and we can accommodate your schedule accordingly.  General substitutes earn $120 per day, and they receive notifications as the need arises, which include both the time and the school building. The hours for the workday are provided below.

  • ·         Keystone Elementary 8:15-3:45
  • ·         Keystone Middle 7:25-2:55
  • ·         Keystone High 7:10-2:40

Qualifications for substitute teachers, mandated by the State, include a Bachelor’s Degree, and BCI/FBI background check. Contact Pam Gamble at the Education Service Center (ESC) at 440-324-5777 ext. 1113 to apply for substitute teaching positions.

In addition, we are in need of a full-time bus driver, beginning in January. To become a part of our transportation team, a CDL license is preferred; however, if you do not have one, we will pay for training. Please view additional details @ https://www.keystonelocalschools.org/about/news/1727217/urgent-need-for-bus-drivers.

Please encourage your child to join one of our many extracurricular organizations! Registration for our KES Wildcat Runners Club is underway. Read more details and access the digital sign-up form @ KES Runs Flyer & Registration. Eighth-twelfth graders also have an opportunity to join the KHS drama club! Their first meeting will be held Thursday, September 15 from 3:00-4pm in the high school band room. Contact Mrs. Cutler at KMS for more information.

Lastly, please remember that our campus is a designated 100% tobacco-free environment; this includes vaping. Thank you for committing to our tobacco-free environment!

Have a wonderful weekend Keystone!
