food photography

The Tech Club is working on its second piece to be shown on the Hiki No program. The topic is "How to take a better food photo." Today they tried out taking pictures of some cupcakes to get ready.  This was the best of the bunch. The cupcakes were good too. but only the "talent" got the cupcakes. Everyone else settled for donuts.

clean up time out

KMS student Tiffany takes a break during the Sandy Beach clean up. On Saturday, February 19th, students and staff helped our community by volunteering to pick up trash at the beach. This activity is done every year. Bags of trash are filled each time.

Trash to....

What could this bucket of trash become? The environmental club can turn what would normally be thrown into the trash and landfill into something useful and helpful to our environment. It doesn't happen instantly.

Garden in progress
