Thanks to our amazing PTOs and Family Resource Center at Camp Dick Robinson and Paint Lick Elementary, students are experiencing the joy of giving this holiday season.🎁 At the Penguin Patch, students shop for affordable gifts, pick out the perfect presents, have them wrapped, and pay all on their own! It is sweet to see their excitement and thoughtfulness as they choose gifts for their families. Next week, our Lancaster Elementary School students will be experiencing the same thing with the Mistletoe Market!
Thumbs Up Thursday is here, and today we are highlighting Garrard County High School!👍
Garrard County High School is proud to be the first in the Bluegrass Region to offer a Registered K-12 Teacher Apprenticeship Program, providing students with hands-on teaching experience, paid work, and professional mentorship. This initiative was celebrated with a presentation by Ben Richardson from the Department of Labor, recognizing the district's leadership in workforce development.
Career Support Specialist Mrs. Ashlee Bolin, a driving force behind the program, shared, "This is the type of real-world experience you can't learn in a college classroom!" Currently, three students are participating: Myla Parson at Paint Lick Elementary in a Kindergarten classroom, Adria Major at Lancaster Elementary in a Pre-School classroom, and Keira Miller, who is preparing to start her apprenticeship soon. Way to go, GCHS! #thumbsupthursday
