💚 Spreading strength across the community! 💚
Our Sources of Strength peer leaders had an amazing morning visiting Wilmore and Nicholasville elementary schools to share the excitement for our upcoming Color Run! Along the way, they also stopped by Central Office to connect with district staff.
Students shared what Sources of Strength is all about, what it means to them personally, and how it helps build positivity and connection in our schools. To top it off, they even led a quick (and competitive!) game of Rock, Paper, Scissors—congrats to Mr. U’Wren for taking down Mrs. Adams in the championship round! 🏆✊✋✌️
We’re proud of these leaders for representing WJHS and spreading strength wherever they go!

📐➕ Real-world math in action!
Mrs. Hudnall’s class put their skills to the test by using the Pythagorean Theorem and simplifying radicals to solve a fun (and very practical) problem—figuring out how long it took different people to walk to the snack shack from various distances and paths. 🍿
By calculating the shortest routes and comparing travel times, students got to see how math applies beyond the classroom—and maybe even found the fastest way to snacks along the way!

We hope Spring Break 2026 was everything you needed to recharge and refocus on the rest of our year! See you bright and early!
Before the break is over, we want to celebrate our amazing Librarian and Media Specialist, Molly Stevens!
Mrs. Stevens is always willing to jump in and help wherever she’s needed, keeping our library running smoothly and supporting both students and staff every day. Her kindness, patience, and positive attitude make a difference in our high school in ways big and small.
When she’s not at school, she enjoys reading, traveling, cross stitch, yoga, and spending time with her family. She also loves anything related to France and French culture, and has a special interest in mid-century modern style and antiques.
We are so grateful for all that you do, Mrs. Stevens and we hope you got to do some of your favorite things over spring break!
