Kealing Middle School

Academy Shadowing

What is Academy Shadowing?

We are excited to offer 5th and 6th grade students who live in the Kealing Middle School attendance zone the opportunity to spend the day as a Kealing student. Students will have the opportunity to visit core and elective classes in addition to experiencing the excitement that comes along with being a Hornet. From the exemplary Fine Arts Programs, Athletic Programs, Career and Technology Programs, and Academic Electives to the engaging core classes and notable AVID program, shadows will get to see an assortment of Kealing program offerings. We will make this opportunity available to as many students as possible but slots will be filled on a first come, first served basis. We look forward to hosting our Kealing Academy Shadows during the Spring of 2020!
Due to a number of constraints, requests to be paired with a particular student will not be granted. 
Students will receive a note to submit to their home school attendance office so their absence can be counted as excused.
