Kelso High School’s 6th Annual Teal Out for Team Jules basketball games is Tuesday, January 28. The Kelso Hilanders take on the Mountain View Thunder with the Boys Varsity play at 5:30 PM and Girls Varsity playing at 7:00 PM.
This 6th Annual Teal Out for Team Jules has grown from being a Teal Out, held each year in memory of 2016 Kelso High School graduate Julia Hiatt, who was deeply admired for her compassion and commitment to community, into the Kelso Kind Project. This project aims to highlight our commitment to foster a culture of kindness, inclusion, and community here at Kelso High School and across the Kelso School District.
During these Teal Out games, we will recognize students at all grade levels across the district who stand out at their schools as being Kelso Kind. Elementary students will be honored at half-time of the boys 5:30 PM game and the secondary students will be honored at half-time of the girls 7:00 PM game.
Kelso High School Pep Club students will also be raising money for the Julia Hiatt Memorial Scholarship through the Kelso Public Schools Foundation. This scholarship will be award to a Kelso High School Senior, who like Julia, makes Kelso a better place for their peers; someone who believes in doing good for others just for the sake of being kind and who inspires others through their actions.
Wear your Be Kind and Gratitude gear or teal and come support your Kelso Hilanders as they take on the Mountain View Thunder, highlight the Kelso Kind Project, and honor our Kelso Kind honorees and Julia’s legacy as we raise money for the scholarship in her name.
If you would like to purchase BE KIND gear, it can be purchased here: https://bsnteamsports.com/shop/bekind2025 in your Kelso School District colors.

WE ARE TOGETHER!!!
