Last Saturday, KAS proudly hosted the TISSA Middle School Swim Meet, bringing together teams for a full day of racing, energy, and school spirit 🏊‍♂️ From the first warm-ups to the final events, our swimmers showed grit, supported each other, and represented KAS with pride. You could feel the team spirit everywhere—from the pool to the sidelines. Our KAS community came together to make it all happen—from coaches and staff to volunteers and families—and it truly showed throughout the day. #GoDragons! #KAS

This week, we proudly welcomed new members into the National Honor Society ✨ NHS is more than an academic honor—it’s a commitment to Scholarship, Leadership, Service, and Character. These students exemplify what it means to lead with purpose, support those around them, and give back to their community. At KAS, our NHS members don’t just stand out in the classroom—they show up for others. From organizing study sessions to supporting teachers and creating spaces for student well-being, they help shape the kind of community we’re proud to be part of. Congratulations to our latest inductees! #KAS #NationalHonorSociety

BACK TO ANCIENT ROME 🏛️ Our elementary school students stepped back in time for an immersive Roman Camp experience! As part of their Ancient Civilizations Unit, they explored what life was like in Ancient Rome—right from their own classroom. Supported by the LARP 宗親會 team, students dressed the part in tunics, helmets, and shields as they explored Roman daily life and tactics through interactive activities and group formations like the well-known “testudo.” Experiences like this bring history off the page and make learning stick in a whole new way. #高雄美國學校

2nd Annual KAS Car Show ⚡ This week, our Grade 7 scientists wrapped up their Energy Unit with the 2nd Annual KAS Car Show, where students designed, built, tested, and raced their own gravity-powered derby cars. Applying concepts like potential and kinetic energy, friction, and center of mass, students refined their designs through testing, data analysis, and iteration—bringing science to life in a hands-on way. The races were fast, competitive, and full of energy, with top racers advancing to a final Championship Race to determine this year’s winner. A big thank you to everyone who came out to support! #KASDragons #MiddleSchoolScience

History came to life in the best way at our Grade 4 Ancient Civilizations Wax Museum 🏛️ After weeks of research, our students stepped into the shoes of historical figures and became “living exhibits,” sharing powerful first-person stories with confidence and pride. From the curiosity that sparked their learning to the effort behind every detail, this was truly their moment to shine. #KAS #KASCommunity
