Kennesaw Charter Science and Math Academy has the following statement regarding the death of our much loved PE Coach, Jeffrey “Jay” Ingram:
Not only was Jay Ingram one of the original staff members of KCSMA, but his passion and heartfelt care for our students, staff and families made him a favorite of all who passed through our halls. His life’s work was foundational to the vision of the school and his presence will be sorely missed. Even though he won’t be physically present, his spirit and dreams for the school will live on as we move forward, remembering him forever in our hearts. At this time, our hearts and thoughts are with his wife and children.

Rounding 3rd and headed for home!!!!!! Things are going well here, just trying to finish. The interior is basically done with the exception of the gym floors and some miscellaneous items from each trade. Once these items are complete we will begin with finals. As for the exterior the landscapers are installing trees and should begin with hydro-seeding by the end of this month. The bus canopies are set to arrive next week so we hope to be going for our outdoor finals in mid February.
