Kerens ISD

We are asking that our visitors park in the visitor parking off of Bonner Street. On the homeside of the stadium, we ask that you do not park in the grass at the practice field, or between the parking lot and the fieldhouse. We are going to attempt to allow more handicap parking inside the safety gate. Once that area is full, we will be blocking it off. We are aware that the new fencing is causing some issues, however that has been put up to keep our students and staff safe during the school day. Thank you for your understanding and patience as we navigate the best possible way to park our fans on Thursday and Friday nights. Please do not park in the grass.

Notice: ALL Football games in Dawson tonight (Thursday) have been cancelled. JH and JV

KISD would like to send out appreciation to the KHS Class of 1966 for their donation of a Bronze Bobcat to Kerens ISD. The Bobcat will eventually be mounted on a marble stand and placed in front of the Secondary School. It will serve as a beacon for those arriving on campus, a gathering place and as a great photo opportunity with the Secondary columns in the background.
