Barren County School District

Lettuce give a HUGE thank you to Ms. Hannah Simmons’ classes for harvesting over 173 pounds of fresh lettuce yesterday! 🥬💪
Even with the weather keeping us out of school, this fresh harvest was distributed across the district, helping nourish our schools when we needed it most. That’s what growing together looks like! 🌱

Dear BC Families,

Wednesday, February 4, will be NTI Day 6 for Barren County Schools.

These photos were taken late this afternoon, showing current conditions on some of our bus routes. While some roads have begun to thaw, there are still backroads across the county that remain unsafe for bus travel, particularly bus turn-arounds, and temperatures are expected to drop below freezing in the early morning hours.

Teachers will communicate expectations for the day directly with students and families. Please continue to check your email and the BC Schools app for updates and information.

Thank you for the continued care and cooperation shown by our community as we work through these winter conditions. We truly hope to be back in school later this week.

In Service,
Amy Irwin, Superintendent
