Happy National Assistant Principals Week to two of the best in the business, Mr. Butler and Mr. Turner!

These two leaders are the backbone of The Providence School. Between their work behind the scenes and interactions with students every day, their impact is felt in every hallway and classroom.

We are so lucky to have them as our APs and so thankful for everything they do and all the ways they serve our school. Thank you!

Huge congratulations to Mr. Simpson, our 2026 TPS Teacher of the Year!

Mr. Simpson is the heartbeat of our school, known for his relentless work ethic and the deep passion he brings to teaching every single day. He mentors the whole student, guiding them with a level of care that helps them find their true potential.

One of Mr. Simpson’s greatest strengths is his ability to help students navigate their emotions and manage their behaviors with patience and grace. He creates a space where every student is treated with the dignity and respect they deserve, empowering them to take ownership of their own journey.

The TPS Middle School 180 class took a journey out into the community for a very special service project!

Inspired by their reading of Touching Spirit Bear, our students wanted to channel the themes of healing and connection into action. The class worked hard to hand-make cozy blankets and traveled to the Nicholasville Animal Shelter to volunteer their time and deliver the gifts to some furry friends in need.

Thank you, staff and students, for being a great reflection of our Discovery values in the community!
