Student Account
Parents are expected to fund a “student account” with the KMS Business Office. A monthly statement will be sent to parents, detailing all charges against the student account. The school manages this account, and funds are used primarily for travel expenses associated with the student-athlete’s training and competition. Although it is recommended that KMS student-athletes have a debit or credit card, students may withdraw cash from their account, as well. Charges to the student account may also include:
- $50.00 refundable dorm damage deposit (for boarding students)
- $50.00 refundable dorm key deposit (for boarding students)
- Lab fees for courses such as art, photography, and science
- National testing fees (e.g. PSAT, SAT, and ACT)
- College application fees
Due to the many influences on a student-athletes training and competition schedule at KMS, the initial deposit may or may not cover the entirety of that student-athlete’s expenses. If the student account balance for a particular student-athlete falls below $50, an additional deposit equal to half of the initial deposit will be required. This can be via credit card, electronic debit from a checking account, or via check. For electronic charges, parents will be notified via email the day prior to the charge.
If, at any point, a student account is overdrawn, no charges of any type will be allowed. This may prevent that student-athlete from participating in camps, competition, and other events. Keeping a sufficient balance in each student account allows the coaching and teaching staff to plan trips and activities in a reasonable manner, particularly when trips require deposits for lodging and transportation.
Vacation Travel Services
It is expected that parents will be responsible for arranging air travel reservations and other transportation for their children, while making certain that departures and arrivals fit within the academic schedule.
KMS provides shuttle service, at a reasonable cost, to the Rutland, Albany, Burlington and Manchester airports for students whose travel schedules correspond with the school's drop-off and pick-up times. KMS also provides transportation to the Rutland train and bus station.
In light of the increasingly complex logistics of travel, the importance of planning early and well for how our students will get to the airport, train, or bus is very crucial. Your son or daughter needs to know this information as soon as possible, and needs to communicate plans to the school. When your child signs up for transportation, it is important to have his/her itinerary in hand at that time.
If students are planning to fly to and from school and are not yet 15 years old, please check with the airline regarding their escort requirements.
