CLASSIC 8 CONFERENCE CHAMPIONS!!!! The Lasers came out big last night in a defensive match up against Muskego that was plagued with swirling rain and cool temps. After a scoreless first half, the general consensus was that the first team to score would win. The Lasers had other plans! Muskego did indeed score first, but the Lasers answered quickly with a touchdown of their own... AND WENT FOR TWO! Making the score 8-7 KM. Muskego fought the clock and pushed down the field, but were stopped by the Laser's defense on fourth down to end the game. It was an emotional win and the soaked student section exploded onto the field in celebration. KM has officially won their first Classic 8 Conference title, entering the playoffs undefeated. GO LASERS!!!
WE HAVE THE BEST FANS!!! Thank you to everyone who came out last night, braving the wind and rain, to cheer on our amazing KM Lasers! It was truly a great night, and we cannot thank you enough for your support.
KEEP OFF THE GRASS! Not to sound like a crabby neighbor, but the field at Vock's North lot is well on its way to becoming a second softball diamond and a great deal of work has been put into preparing the surface. With all of the rain, we cannot have vehicle traffic on the field... no exceptions. Parking is available at Wales Elementary, KMHS, and Bethlehem Lutheran (across from the stadium.) We ask that you also NOT park on the grass at Bethlehem. Let's have a great time at tonight's game without causing lasting and costly damage to our facilities!! Thank you for your cooperation.

Friday the 13th, in the month of October, might frighten some. As the top-ranked D2 team in the state, the Lasers are not even a little bit afraid of taking on top-ranked D1 Muskego.

We have had a lot of interest from state news agencies and are hoping for record fan turnout and a sea of blue and gold! The game starts at 7:00 PM and will also be LIVE streamed!

On October 10, 2023, Dousman 5th graders traveled to The Overture Center in Madison to enjoy the musical "The Wiz" performed by The Children's Theater of Madison. Students followed the characters on an exciting journey through the land of Oz while tapping their feet to the soulful production. In addition, students had the opportunity to visit the Madison Museum of Contemporary Art. They saw and learned about contemporary art, the artists' style, and the material choices of Federico Uribe and Sam Gilliam. Moreover, students enjoyed spectacular views and the rooftop sculpture garden. Students and staff had an exciting adventure of the performing and visual arts tied to a current literacy unit.

Middle School Orchestra "Dousman Song" World Premiere! KM middle school orchestra members performed at Dousman Elementary's October Character Assembly this morning. The musicians, taught and conducted by Ms. Weber, performed a WORLD PREMIERE of "The Dousman School Song" for string orchestra. The song was originally composed by retired KM Music Teacher Vicki Marshall, who taught Ms. Weber in the early 90's. Ms. Weber arranged the piece for string orchestra and taught her students the piece, who were then joined in song by the entire Dousman student body! As a Dousman Alumni, Ms. Weber reiterates the impact that music had on her self-concept and enjoyment of school as a young student. We are so grateful to all of our current and past District music staff and the robust elementary music programming! The Dousman Bullfrogs loved the performance, and were very respectful audience members!
