📚With March Madness around the corner, our school-wide Book Madness bracket challenge is here! Each day, classrooms are diving into exciting stories and voting for their favorites! A huge shoutout to our creative gifted teacher, Ms. Heseman, for coordinating all of the reading fun. We're having a blast reading, voting, and cheering for our top picks!
🎉Happy Birthday to our namesake, Hattie C. Warner! Thanks to our food service team, we celebrated her birthday with ice cream and decorations during lunch today. Hattie C. Warner was born in 1886 and served as an educator in Jessamine County for 46 years. She loved to travel and collect diamonds. She always told her students, "I don't care if you are made of gold or set in diamonds, you are all the same to me". We continue to live that out at Warner as we value each and every student as an important part of our Warner family!
🍩 Over 200 men joined us for Donuts with Dudes last week! A big thank you to the Revive Next Gen program for donating the delicious donuts. It was a special time honoring the important men in our students' lives. We're grateful for everyone who made this event so memorable!
💙🏀Congratulations to these Warner Wildcats for winning their Parks and Rec championship basketball game today! Way to go, Wildcats!
As part of our learning during Black History Month, our students were introduced to Norman Lewis, an artist known for abstract expressionism, and his painting "Harlem Jazz Jamboree" during art class. They have been collaborating with their classmates to create their own versions of "Harlem Jazz Jamboree" which will soon bring lots of joy to our hallways!

During the month of February, our 1st graders have been learning about animal traits and survival during STEM class. They kicked off their unit around Groundhog's Day learning whether or not animals can really predict the weather. Students learned about the science of light and shadows. They have been enjoying listening to read aloud texts as well and learning some new vocabulary!
Our 3rd graders have been using their critical thinking skills while learning! In math, they have been exploring fractions, building fraction models with fraction tiles. Also, as part of their weather and climate unit during STEM, they have learned about the effects of natural disasters. Our 3rd graders made models of a home and then using certain materials, designed different ways to make their houses able to withstand a wind storm.
💙🖤On this National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day, we show our appreciation for our SRO, Officer Justin Wilson! We are thankful for our partnership with the Nicholasville Police Department and Officer Wilson’s efforts in keeping our students and staff safe at Warner!
At Warner, we believe in making a difference in our community! A group of our staff members and volunteers worked together to donate and gather snacks, toiletries, hats, and gloves to show care for both children and adults who are homeless. These care bags were then donated to the Jessamine County Homeless Coalition. Thanks to our instructional assistant and After-School Program Lead, Pam Neal, for coordinating this wonderful act of kindness!
Some of our 4th graders had an amazing time at JCTC working alongside the biomedical pathway students! They dove into some exciting science experiments — from extracting DNA from strawberries to creating their very own DNA models. The highlight was playing detective and tracking down Patient 0 in an outbreak simulation. What a fun and educational experience for our students. And once again, we love our partnership with JCTC!
Our 5th graders have been studying the Revolutionary War. Our Social Studies teacher, Ms. Anders, challenged her students to turn their investigation of the Boston Massacre into a debate. The students had to decide if the soldiers were innocent or guilty. This experience was both challenging and engaging as students worked collaboratively to research and defend their points of view!
Once a week after school, some of our very talented 4th and 5th graders and our music teacher Mrs. Crockett fill our halls with beautiful music and singing! These students are rehearsing for their upcoming JCS All County Choir day where they will gather together with students from the other JCS schools for a day of music, singing and fun. They are having a blast learning new songs and getting ready for their performance!
Our students learn about our world by experiencing different cultures. Recently our first graders created dragon masks that represent good luck in the Chinese New Year during art class. They also sang some Chinese songs and danced with their dragon masks during music. We love when our specials teachers can collaborate on special projects!
Many thanks to our PTO for purchasing new playground equipment for our students to play with during recess - hula hoops, balls, sidewalk chalk, and more! Our kids are so excited! Also, our PTO treated our staff to a soup and salad lunch last week which was enjoyed by everyone. We are lucky to have such a great PTO who supports our students, staff, and families. We are always looking for more family members to join in and help with events and tasks. If you are interested, please email warnerpto0@gmail.com.
🎉Congratulations to our Warner Academic Team for their 3rd Place Overall finish in the District Governor's Cup competition yesterday! Our quick recall team earned 3rd Place, and at least one of our students placed in the top 5 in every content area for the content assessments and written composition. We are SO proud of these students for their hard work and perseverance. Thank you to Mrs. Shelton for dedicating her time to coaching this team! On to Regionals!
Our Twirl Jessamine Baton Team entertained the crowd during halftime at a Parks and Rec basketball game today! Many thanks to Donna Daniel, Donna Roberts and Misty Jordan for providing these girls with the opportunity to build poise, confidence, friendships and baton-twirling skills.
