Thank you to UK Healthcare for visiting our Health Science classes at the ATC last week! They brought the METIman simulator, so students could have the opportunity to listen to lung and heart sounds. Guests from UK Healthcare attended to discuss their specialties and experience working with UK Healthcare.
Don't forget tonight- if you have a student interested in the medical field, we will be announcing and providing information on a new collaborative program between UK Healthcare, BCTC and Garrard County High School! The event will begin at 6:30 in the Garrard County High School Library!

We would like to thank everyone who took advantage of our Test to Stay program during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic. The company providing this resource is no longer offering testing services, therefore GCS will no longer be able to offer this option to our community.

Garrard County Schools' masking update on Saturday, January 22, 2022, was a request to return to masks to improve the opportunity for students and staff to avoid quarantines. Garrard County Board Policy has not changed. Saturday's update should not be seen as a mandate or requirement.
This is a message from the Garrard County Board of Education.
Due to the continuing rise in the COVID incidence rate in the Garrard County community, the Garrard County Schools will return to wearing masks for the week of January 24, 2022. Masks will reduce the number of quarantines required and will allow more students and staff to remain in school. The return to masking will be reviewed on a weekly basis and a return to optional masking will occur as soon as possible.
