The KPO is looking for a volunteer to manage the KPO Website (http://kempnerparents.org). If you would like to help, please contact us at khsvips@gmail.com. It would really help our organization to reach more parents and volunteers with the most up-to-date information for the current school year!
Cougar Cove is looking for volunteers to help for the rest of the school year. The Cougar Cove is located inside the school (room 806) and provides students (who have an immediate need) with food, personal care items, and school supplies at no charge to them. All items are donated by our Kempner community and local businesses. Below is the Cougar Cove volunteer signup link if interested.
