What a fantastic afternoon of future planning! A huge shoutout to our Everybody Counts coach, Mrs. Barnes, for hosting a successful lunch event today. Our students had a chance to connect and engage in valuable conversations about post-secondary plans and career options, all while scoring some cool swag. We are so proud to partner with the Everybody Counts Kentucky initiative to help our students find their path forward! 🎓💼 #EverybodyCounts #WJHS #FutureReady




This week, we would like to extend a special thank you to our front desk dynamic duo, Mrs. Elliott and Mr. Daugherty, for their unwavering commitment to our school's safety. Their diligent work in upholding all safety procedures is a cornerstone of our secure learning environment. We are so grateful for their role in protecting our students and staff!


Today, we pause to remember the events of September 11, 2001. We honor the lives lost, the heroes who responded, and the spirit of unity that emerged in the wake of tragedy. We teach our students the importance of kindness, courage, and community, ensuring that we never forget.

The lady Colts took out Boyle County tonight in 5 sets!
And, we rolled out our new score table. There are 2 business sponsorships available at $5000 each or both for $8000. These are good for the life of the table (12-15 years) and will be displayed at all volleyball, boys and girls basketball games.
Email Mark.miracle@jessamine.kyschools.us if your business is interested in sponsorship. They will go quickly!
Go Colts!
