Odyssey of the Mind
Congratulations to both of the KQA Odyssey of the
Mind teams. We had a great showing at the district
competition last weekend. Our middle school
―Runaway ‗Train‘‖ team placed 1st and our elementary
school ―Pandora‘s Box‖ team placed 5th. Both teams
are advancing to the state competition on Saturday
March 28 at Ft. Collins High School.
Anyone interested in Odyssey of the Mind next year is
welcome to join us in showing support for our KQA
teams at the state competition and see what it is all
about. For more information please contact Amanda

Yearbooks are now on SALE!
We are excited to offer an online order/pay option to get order yearbooks. See the attached
form for instructions. You may order one (1) yearbook at a time, but have the option to
pay with your credit/debit card. Memory Book, who publishes our yearbook, will process
your payment and notify me that you have ordered a yearbook. If you have more than one
child that you would like to order a yearbook, you will have to do them one per order. They
are looking to expand that next year to order more than one at a time.
The deadline for ordering has been extended to March 26.
Thank You
KQA Yearbook Staff
