Mary Lynch Elementary has decided to hold a Read-a-thon this year!
Read-a-thons get your reader excited about reading and it allows friends and family to encourage your child to read even more.
Our Read-a-thon starts Friday, March 1, 2024.
About one week before our Read-a-thon starts we will send home instructions on how to activate your reader's personal page. This is where you will be able to view and record their progress.
We've chosen Read-a-thon because it will not take much of your time, gives your child a reason to read, and helps in the development of stronger reading skills.
We hope everyone participates.

KPS Parents and Patrons,
Based on the law enforcement events in the city of Kimball today, I wanted to remind everyone of our Standard Response Protocols (a picture is attached of the protocols) at KPS. KPS was not in a lockdown today as was reported by various media outlets; however, KPS was in a "Secure" setting with monitored entry for a period of time this morning as there was an ongoing search by law enforcement in our community. This led to there being no open campus for our junior/ senior high school students as local law enforcement requested that students stay on-site so as not to interfere with their activities. Upon receiving notification from county law enforcement officials that there was no longer a threat in the community, a notification was sent from KPS informing parents and patrons of a regular dismissal today. Student safety has been, and will continue to be, our top priority at KPS and we will utilize our communication channels (website, social media, text messages, etc.) to communicate any events that may impact student safety at KPS to all parents and patrons. If you have any questions regarding our Standard Response Protocols at KPS, please contact Superintendent Trevor Anderson at: tanderson@kpslonghorns.org or (308)235-2188.
We had science club today at ELITE. The kids did a candy heart science experiment. They predicted what would happen to the candies when they were put in water, soda, hand sanitizer, and vinegar.
