This school is a very good school. We allways do are best and reach for the highest. The teachers help you through out anything. We set goals at the begining of the year and by then of the year we achieve them. I glad K.O. Knudson has accepted me in to the magnet program. So far I have been here for sixth and seventh grade, lets hope eighth!

I love the art teacher here Mr.Heide.He is the best teacher ever!

Submitted by a Former Student on Nov 17, 2010

I absolutly think that K.O. Knudson is the best middle school ever because it shows so much spirit. Plus I have heard so many people tell me great things about K.O.Knudson. I feel happy for the students who go to K.O. Knudson. That is why I sent my daughter to go to that school. I bet she is going to have a blast. My daughter loves to dance so when I heard that it was an art school to, I knew that I had to send her. She is already liking the school.
