Kelso High School Pep Club and ASB Leadership invite you to be part of our Kelso Kind Project. This initiative has grown out of our commitment to foster a culture of kindness, inclusion, and community at KHS. It is also our active response to standing against bullying in our schools, and our desire to recognize those among us who truly embody “We Are Kelso.”
The project has grown out of the annual Teal Out Game, an event held each January in memory of Julia Hiatt, a 2016 Kelso High School graduate who was deeply admired for her compassion and commitment to community. Julia's legacy lives on through the Kelso Public Schools Foundation Julia Hiatt Memorial Scholarship, awarded each year to a senior who embodies these qualities of kindness and leadership. This year we aim to spread our recognition to other students at all levels in our district who live out this legacy.
As part of this project, we will be celebrating World Kindness Day on November 13th and are now offering the Julia “Be Kind” shirts in Kelso School District Colors. You can purchase yours here: https://bsnteamsports.com/shop/JE3mWeHpe3. All Proceeds go to the Julia Hiatt Memorial Scholarship.
The Store will be open through November 18th and orders will ship in time for Christmas. We will offer another store if you miss this on in December and a final one at the time of the 6th Annual Teal Out for Team Jules coming in January.
