Warner Elementary Girls on the Run participants are crushing their goals this season! 🏃♀️ Beyond the physical benefits, these students are building confidence, learning the power of teamwork, and discovering that they can do difficult things.

A massive shoutout to the "team behind the team"- the dedicated Warner staff members serving as coaches and running partners. Your willingness to go the extra mile (literally!) demonstrates your commitment to our students' well-being outside the classroom. We appreciate you! ❤️

Service, Leadership, and Heart 💙💛
Our FFA students truly went above and beyond for this year’s Food Drive. This wasn't just about collecting cans; it was a massive operation. These students demonstrated what genuine leadership looks like in action.
Because of their hustle—and the incredible generosity of our community—families right here in Jessamine County will have a wonderful meal this Thanksgiving. 🦃
To our FFA members: Thank you for pouring your hearts into this. The impact of your kindness is immeasurable!
We know that no one knows school lunch better than the students eating it. That’s why we turned to the experts—our students—to share what they love and what we can improve. Students sampled options, completed a survey, and offered thoughtful feedback to help us shape menus that truly reflect their preferences.
Thank you to our advisory group for their honesty, leadership, and collaboration!

Coping with stress is a vital life skill, and last week EJMS therapy dog, Dr. Bill, helped lead a lesson on Healthy Coping Strategies, teaching students that there are many ways to handle big emotions—from getting active to practicing mindfulness. Students also learned about Animal-Assisted Therapy from this expert in unconditional love and how our furry friends can help lower anxiety and boost our mood.
We love seeing our district therapy dogs making a difference in the classroom! 💙

Congrats to the team - way to grind out the win! 🤖🏆
As students get older, family involvement naturally starts to look a little different — but it’s just as important as ever in high school. Even if you’re not volunteering in the classroom as much, your support still makes a huge impact.
From helping teens think about their future to staying connected with what’s happening at school, engaged families are linked to higher graduation rates and increased post-secondary opportunities.
This Family and Community Engagement Week, we’re celebrating every parent, guardian, and caregiver who shows up in ways big and small. Your support matters more than you know! 💙
It's a district tradition that keeps our students safe and provides them with an unforgettable night to mark their achievement. To make this event a success, we need your voice, your ideas, and your support.
Join us at the next planning meeting and help send our seniors off in style!

🏛️ 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.
