On this evening, our seniors are honored for the work they have accomplished while students at Kasson-Mantorville High School. We ask seniors and their parents to let us know what scholarships students have received from colleges, community organizations, or other local scholarships. Scholarship award information can be dropped off or emailed to Julie Faulhaber, Guidance Office secretary, (j.faulhaber@komets.k12.mn.us) by May 1, 2023. We would like to announce these awards/scholarships and accomplishments at the Senior Scholarship & Awards Night along with listing this information in the graduation ceremony program.

Thank you for your assistance. We look forward to a very special evening of celebrations.

What is a "final" high school transcript and why is it important?
In order to verify that you have met college admission enrollment requirements, you must have your final high school transcript, including date of graduation, submitted to the Office of Admissions after graduation.

How do seniors request their KMHS "final high school transcript?"
Seniors will be asked to fill out a "senior survey" with the counselors in March through a senior exit survey which asked seniors what college/university they would like their "final" high school transcript sent to. This list is posted outside the Guidance Office for students to check and was also sent to seniors via email to double check.

How can students check that the Guidance Office will send their "final transcript" to the correct college?
The Guidance Office will generate a list of "final" high school transcript requests from these senior surveys and post a list on the Guidance Office door/window so students can double check that the correct college for them is listed.

When will the KMHS Guidance Office send "final transcripts" to colleges?
The Guidance Office will send out transcripts, electronically, the week after graduation (once all transcripts have been time-stamped with the graduation date).

How do I request my college transcript to be sent to my new college I'll be attending next year?
Follow the directions on this handout called "How to Claim My College Credits Earned at KMHS"

I used my school KoMet email when I created my starid account. How do I change that to my personal email?
  • Go to eservices
  • Login with your starid and password
  • Click on "my profile" in the upper right-hand corner
  • Click on "update account" and you should be able to change your email address to a personal one.
If that doesn't work...try this:
  • Go to eservices
  • Login with your starid and password
  • Click on "account management"
  • Click on "demographic information" and you should be able to change your email address to a personal one here

If students or parents have questions on transcripts please contact Karen Wetzstein, Guidance Office secretary at 634-2981 or k.wetzstein@komets.k12.mn.us.

Once seniors graduate they will no longer have access to their school provided Googles Apps account. Make sure to download/copy the files you want to keep on another device not owned by the District. After graduation, there will be no means of retrieving them. 

To  transfer copies of your documents in mass to a personal Google account you can use Google Takeout Tool.  Here is a link to an article with directions for students to transfer Google Drive content to a personal account If you need additional assistance, here is the link to a video tutorial as well.

Note: Dragging a file from Google Drive to your desktop will NOT download it. Be sure to follow the steps above. 

Each year we like to make one day extra special and celebrate seniors' plans after graduation. We normally do this on May 1 as this is “national college decision day” but we like to celebrate on a Friday so we have chosen Friday, May 5 as our date instead.  On this day (May 5) we encourage seniors to wear their future school’s college gear, military branch, employer, etc. to school. We will take their picture, post their plans, and celebrate by eating cupcakes. Prior to this day, we would love for students to your counselor a “selfie” wearing the “gear” of their future college, military branch, employer or other plans so we can “tweet” out on the @KMHSGuidance office twitter account on Friday, May 5. Please encourage your seniors to participate so we can celebrate with the world their future plans! Pictures before May 1 would be great! 

The senior class is scheduled for Friday, May 19, 2023, at Whitewater State Park.  Some of the information you will need to know is as follows:

Consequence may include not walking during Graduation.

Rules - This is a school activity.  All school rules will be in force as will be the consequences.  Additionally, any violations of the alcohol, tobacco, or drug rule will result in not being permitted to go through the graduation ceremony.  We will be searching students’ bags, purses, and coolers before loading the buses on Friday morning.  While there is a swimming beach, it is important that no one is thrown in against his or her will.  Also, no cliff-jumping will be tolerated.
