Students rotated through interactive stations where they explored components of programs offered through Mohave College’s Advanced Manufacturing Training Center. One of the biggest highlights was the opportunity for students to input codes and program the cobot to perform different movements!
Experiences like this give students a glimpse into the exciting opportunities available in robotics, automation, and advanced manufacturing—and show how classroom learning can connect directly to future careers. 🚀🤖
A big thank you to Mohave College for bringing this hands-on experience to our students!

We love seeing our students connect across grade levels, learn from one another, and build a strong sense of community within KUSD.
👏 Great job, KMS Cambridge students!





The Kingman Lions Club recently visited our first-grade students at Little Explorers Early Learning Center to introduce them to the Flags for First Graders program!

Thank you to the Kingman Lions Club for helping our students learn, celebrate, and show their appreciation for the American flag! 👏
