🏛️ Strong Partners Build Strong Schools
It's Family and Community Engagement Week and we’re celebrating more than our relationships—we’re celebrating the results they help create. 💚
Our latest KSA results show district-wide growth, and JCS moved up a full color rating to High-Performing (Green status). That progress doesn’t happen by accident. It happens because our students are surrounded by a community that lifts them up.
To the parents and grandparents who volunteer, the community who invests in and shows up for our students, and the families who make education a priority: this growth is your accomplishment, too.
Thank you for partnering with us to ensure every JCS student succeeds.
Full bellies and happy hearts at NES today! ❤️🦃
Thank you to our amazing Child Nutrition team for the wonderful Thanksgiving meals that they're serving , and a massive high-five to the Kiwanis Club of Jessamine County for stopping in to serve dessert at NES today! The treats were a great addition to a fantastic lunch.
Grateful for the community members who make every day a little sweeter! 🤝#Thankful #NESFamily

To mark this important week, The Kentucky Department of Education has launched a great new resource: the Parent and Family Connection Hub -—a one-stop resource designed to help parents and families stay informed, involved, and inspired throughout their child’s educational journey.
You'll find resources on key topics like
✅Academic Success
✅Getting Involved
✅Support for Diverse Needs
✅Wellness
Access this new resource at https://www.education.ky.gov/ParentFamilyHub/Pages/default.aspx
Stay tuned all week as we share more stories highlighting the integral role that families and community play in our students' success!
Big students inspiring little learners! 🤝
Our hearts are full seeing this amazing collaboration between our schools. Each year, JCTC pathway students visit our elementary schools (see them in action here at BES) to lead career exploration activities with the younger students!
From learning about electricity to exploring medical science, our high schoolers step up as incredible mentors, sharing their passions and showing our younger students all the amazing possibilities their futures hold.
This is what community is all about: connecting our students, building leadership skills, and planting the seeds for big dreams! 🌱
We're cheering on our WJHS Colts in their second playoff game tonight against North Laurel! It's a home game- come on out and support these outstanding student-athletes and their dedicated coaches. Let's go, Colts!

JCS administrators will tell you that connecting with students is the best part of their day.
This week, Superintendent Crum and Principal Nick Schuerman were spotted in a BES art class. They didn't just visit—they jumped right in, creating alongside our young artists and had a blast.
Moments like these are a perfect reminder that no matter the title, the heart of an educator always shines through. ✨
Drop a ❤️ to celebrate all of our hands-on leaders!

A massive THANK YOU to Lowe's for choosing The Providence School as a recipient of their incredible Hometown Heroes Project Grant and to TPS teacher, Ms. Johnson, for her initiative to apply for the funding! 💙🛠️
Lowe's associates donated their time and materials to assemble and deliver so many amazing things that will benefit our students, including a brand-new gaga ball pit and nine square game set up, a beautiful pavilion, freshly planted flowers, and some interior upgrades too!
We are so grateful for Lowe's dedication to our community and helping us enhance the learning environment for our students. Thank you for investing in our students and making The Providence School an even better place to learn, work, and grow!
Today, our students are learning about and honoring the brave individuals who served our nation. We are grateful for their service, their sacrifice, and the lessons of courage they teach us all.
Thank you, Veterans.
Officer Bomin, reporting for duty! 👮♂️
A huge congrats to Warner Elementary student, Bomin, for winning the awesome chance to be SRO for a Day! He teamed up with Officer Wilson to supervise the halls, check doors, and even scored a VIP tour of the Nicholasville Police Department. We're excited to hear that Bomin was so inspired by the experience that he's now considering a future in law enforcement!
Thank you to Officer Wilson for helping to make this awesome, memorable day happen! It's a fantastic reminder of the positive, powerful relationships our SROs build with students every single day and the incredible impact those connections have. #StudentSpotlight #MentorsMatter
What a start! Huge congratulations to the EJMS Cheer squad! 💙💚
We were honored to host KY Education Commissioner Dr. Robbie Fletcher and KY Board of Education Vice Chair Dr. Lu Young for a look at the amazing learning happening across our district every day.
At JCTC-East, they saw our future-ready students in action in Fire Science, Culinary Arts, and Early Childhood Education
Then at East Jessamine High, they experienced our Jaguars’ academic and artistic excellence—stopping by Choir, AP Government & Politics, and AP Calculus. A special “full circle” moment came when Dr. Fletcher, a former math teacher, even jumped in for a mini lesson!
From hands-on career training to high-quality academics and the arts, we’re proud to show how JCS is ALL IN for preparing every student for their future.
Thank you for visiting! #AllinKY #VibrantLearning #JCSExcellence
We were incredibly proud to host Kentucky Education Commissioner Dr. Robbie Fletcher and KY Board of Education Vice Chair Dr. Lu Young at Rosenwald Dunbar Elementary today for a very special reason.
Our guests visited RDES to hear directly from our students about their Jessamine Cares Malawi orphan care project. It was a powerful opportunity for our young leaders to share their passion, hard work, and the global impact they are making from right here in Jessamine County.
We are constantly amazed by the compassion and dedication of our students. This project is a beautiful example of how our schools are nurturing not just great students, but outstanding global citizens.
Thank you, Dr. Fletcher and Dr. Young, for celebrating this meaningful work with us. It shows our students that being "All In" means caring for our community and the world! #AllinKY #VibrantLearning #JCSExcellence
Our school psychologists are dedicated to helping students thrive. Whether it's supporting their academic, social, or emotional needs, their contributions are essential to our schools and community.

Let’s rally behind these amazing athletes as they take the court and show what hard work, teamwork, and Colt spirit are all about.
Good luck, Colts— go make some Sweet 16 magic!
