A Message from Your Principal

My name is Jake Moore, and I am the proud principal of Kennett Middle School. I began at KMS in 2015 as an assistant principal. Since then, I have learned so much about education and leadership and have experienced the Kennett community’s support for their children and for the Kennett Consolidated School District.  It is exceptional!  

I promise you that our commitment to your children will never waver.  Dr. DeAngelis, the former principal of KMS, established the expectation that all KMS students and staff must work hard and be kind.  Those expectations remain firm. If students and staff can check these boxes daily, the rest of middle school will take care of itself.  Parents and guardians should know that no matter what day it is, hard work and kindness drive everything in our school. Mrs. Miller, Ms. King, and I are so excited to welcome you to KMS.  You are going to love it here!

Located in Landenberg, Pennsylvania, Kennett Middle School is home to the Blue Demons and is the sole middle school in the Kennett Consolidated School District. The impressive building was built in 2002 and continues to be a hub of academia and activities in the Kennett community.

Kennett Middle School was proud to be recognized as a Pennsylvania Don Eichhorn School to Watch in 2012, 2015, 2018, 2021 and again in 2024!  Upon entering the Kennett Middle School building, our Kennett PRIDE is evident and can be seen and heard throughout all five wings and in common areas. The safety, well-being, and academic, social, and emotional growth of our adolescent students are the priority of our dedicated staff members.

"We pride ourselves on meeting ALL students where they are and helping them grow as students and people. I promise you that our commitment to your child will never waver. Let’s work together to ensure that KMS remains the best school for your child."
