Mr. K's Room

Farewell Friends!!!

2008-06-23T12:51:00.002-05:00

This will be the last entry from Room 210. I have taken a position at the Portsmouth Naval Shipyard and will be leaving FHS. I want to thank all the students, faculty, friends, and family that have made the last three years of my life so memorable.

I will continue to assist the Class of 2009 as much as I possibly can next year as they move into their senior year. Any student that needs to get a hold of me in the future can still email pkinneavy.fhs@hotmail.com. I will be checking it periodically.

Once again thanks again to everyone at FHS, I will miss all of you guys!!!!
