Thank you for your dedication, your bravery, and for being such a vital part of our school family. We are safer and stronger because of you!


These dedicated individuals spend countless hours behind the scenes, making the tough decisions that keep our schools running and our students thriving. Their commitment to excellence and their vision for the future of Bourbon County is what makes our district a special place to learn and grow.
Join us in saying THANK YOU to our board members for their leadership, their passion, and their unwavering support of our students and staff! 🎓✨

Important Bus Information:
Due to a driver shortage, Middle School and High School students who ride Bus 32 will be picked up from campus at approximately 4:25 p.m., as the driver will be completing two routes. Students will wait in the High School gym under supervision until the bus arrives. We apologize for the inconvenience.
We got a little ahead of ourselves with the Google Form permission slip trying to expedite the process. 👀
Per board policy, we must use the official district permission slip form for our Main Event trip.
All 11th and 12th grade students attending Main Event must complete the updated permission slip using the link in this post and email it to Nate.McCombs@bourbon.kyschools.us.
Here is the Link to the Main Event Permission Slip: [https://drive.google.com/file/d/1zIlnZTm5epr79SRANzSHUN82LmetqbxK/view?usp=drive_link]
Paper copies are also available in the front office for any student who needs one.
Thank you for your flexibility and for helping us stay in compliance while we celebrate our Colonels!

Tomorrow will be designated as NTI Day #2. Please have your student follow the instructions provided by their teachers for Non-Traditional Instruction (NTI). Daycare services will be open.
