The future is bright! 😎
Our ELD4 seniors attended a job fair at the University of Louisville stadium today, where they practiced their networking skills and connected with 20 different potential employers. They also got to quickly explore the UofL campus and check out some of its highlights — an inspiring day full of opportunities and new experiences!
Also, congratulations to Francoise! She received a $50 gift card because she accepted a job orientation!

Thank you to our counselors, Mr. Thompson and Ms. Balentine for chaperoning!

Our Dragons took learning to the next level at the Tennessee Titans Learning Lab in Nashville today! Students were able to explore the behind the scenes of the NFL, from stadium operations to marketing and team-management. We're proud of our students for diving into the world of sports, business, teamwork, and learning in such a dynamic way. This was an unforgettable experience!

Dear JCPS families,

We appreciate your understanding as our schools and buildings are closed today while the city has implemented a necessary shelter-in-place due to last night’s tragic plane crash.

Today, our teams are checking the air and water quality at all of our schools and buildings. We are doing these checks out of an abundance of caution, as the safety of our students and staff is our top priority.

Phone: (502) 966-3821

We know situations like what happened last night impact our students in different ways. Every JCPS school has a mental health team that is available to talk with students about how they are feeling. If your child would like support when we return to class, please reach out to their school.

As a reminder, we provide important updates via text, email, JCPS social media platforms, the JCPS app, our website, and local media.

Thank you for your continued support of our students and staff.

The Health Science Academy was proud to shine a light on two incredible students for the month of October: Malacci and Jaeline!

These compassionate leaders went above and beyond by dedicating their time and talents to support peers in need. Their selflessness and empathy make them true role models in our community and exemplify the heart of what it means to be a Health Science student.
