We are so proud of all our Barren County students who performed at Children’s Day at the Plaza. Their talent and energy were so impressive! Children’s Day raises important funds for our Family Resource and Youth Services Centers, helping them support the needs of kids throughout our community. We are grateful for the opportunity to be part of something that makes such a meaningful difference. A special thank you to TJ Community Medical for organizing this annual event and for their continued support of students across our community.

Last week, the board recognized Mr. Tommy High for a special Leave a Legacy contribution, a 1913 Steinway grand piano that will now serve as the centerpiece of our newly named Trojan Choir Room. Music has always been an important part of the High family, and that legacy continues through his daughter and son-in-law, Susie and Byron Lucas, who serve as choir directors at BCMS and BCHS, and their sons, Brighton and Micah. We are grateful to Mr. High and his family for sharing their love of music with our students and for the lasting impact this gift will have on our school community.

Students from the Temple Hill Help Desk are hard at work continuing their Chromebook repair training! This teamwork between Temple Hill Elementary and our District Tech Office is giving real-world opportunities to STLP HelpDesk students in grades 3–6. These students can already replace screens, keyboards, trackpads, batteries, and more, which allows many Chromebook issues to be repaired right at school! We’re proud of the hands-on skills they’re building and the confidence that comes with solving real tech problems. Great job, STLP!
