Student Leadership Council

Congrats to our Student Leadership Council on their National Gold Council of Excellence by NASSP for the 4th year in a row!  We are the only public school in the state of KY to receive this award.  Go Jags!

Teacher Appreciation Week!

This week we celebrate our teachers and all they do for our students and school!  There are various things planned such as a coffee truck, PTSO luncheon and our Student Leadership Council goodie bags and treats. Much appreciation and thanks to our parents in responding to our request of items to put together for the goodie bags! 

June ACT Registration 

Don't wait much longer if you plan on taking the ACT Test on June 11th. The registration deadline is May 6th. 

ACT Registration Page

We strongly encourage students to take the ACT many times their junior and senior year. Many post-secondary institutions super score ACT results meaning they take the highest subsections of all of the time we take the ACT. 

If in April you scored one or two points higher in science than you did the last time you did, they look at the highest science score and record this as your official score for science. 

The progress suggestions that come with the ACT results to increase the students knowledge and performance to the next level is a great tool to continue the improvement.  

Students that have free/reduced lunch status can take the ACT for free twice, in addition to the state provided ACT test for all juniors in March. Students with free/reduced lunch status should stop by the guidance office to pick up a form to receive two free ACT tests.

Baccalaureate Service - Class 2022

The Class of 2022's Baccalaureate Service will be held on Sunday, May 22nd at 7 Hills Church. All students are welcome to attend the service, regardless of faith or denomination, as they enter into the next chapter of their lives with the support of their communities. 

This is a RSVP event. Please use the following link to reserve your seat for a night of worship, celebration, commencement, and free dinner catered by City Barbecue.   Baccalaureate Service RSVP Link

Thank you to parents Durran and Heather Alexander for organizing and sponsoring this event.
