West Jessamine High School

Graduate Profile Student Spotlight: Responsibility
Cassidy is consistently showing responsibility outside of our building and with the elementary students she works with! Way to go!

Have you started the post-secondary conversation with your WJHS student—college, workforce, military, or technical training? What part of the discussion felt exciting, and what parts were challenging? Exploring options together and shared responsibility helps students make confident, informed decisions about their future path. Share how your family is navigating the next steps! #KyFamEngage25 #WJHS

🎉 WJHS KSA Highlights are in! 🎉
We’re excited to share our Kentucky Summative Assessment (KSA) highlights from last school year and celebrate the incredible growth and hard work of our students and staff!

From academic gains to strong progress across content areas, these results reflect a school community that shows up, pushes forward, and strives for excellence every single day. 💪📚 We’re proud of what we accomplished together—and even more energized for the year ahead. #coltpride

Congrats to Joey Tucker on signing with UNC Asheville!

Staying connected makes a big difference in helping our Colts grow and thrive. With everyone’s busy schedules, what’s one way you keep open, two-way communication with your teen?

At WJHS, we know the high school years are all about growth—both for students and their families. These are the years when you're shaping the relationship you’ll carry with your young adult long after graduation. How can you support and guide them while also helping them build independence?

Sending all the good luck wishes and positive vibes to our football team tonight as they take on N.

Coming to the game tomorrow night? LIKE this post and leave some encouraging words for the team in the comments! Go Colts!

Mr. Tyler's JAG classes took a trip to UK today for a tour of campus! It was a beautiful day and the students were able to visit the library, renovated dorms, lecture halls, and even stopped by Champions Kitchen for lunch. These types of experiences are critical for showing students what their next steps could look like!

It's basketball time in Colt Country! Don't miss out on COLT MADNESS - tonight!
