🏛️ Learning Government by Seeing It in Action!
Fayette County Schools recently sent a select group of our 8th grade students to Youth in Government Day for an unforgettable, real-world civics experience.
These students:
✔️ Visited the State Capitol
✔️ Observed the legislative process during live sessions
✔️ Participated in mock legislative meetings
✔️ Met and interacted with state leaders and legislators
This program is designed to give students a firsthand look at how laws are created and how state government operates during the legislative session. Experiences like this bring classroom learning to life and help our students better understand the impact of civic engagement.

FCS - Monday, February 16 is a regular instructional school day. This day was originally a PL day, but we had a snow day on February 6 and converted it to a PL day. This is to allow us to not extend the school calendar.
🌟 Fayette County Students Are Leading the Way! 🌟
Our students aren’t just planning for the future — they’re building it.
As members of the Superintendent’s Advisory Council, these student leaders are using their voice to drive real change across Fayette County Schools. Student voice and choice is more than a belief here — it’s a guiding force in how we grow and improve as an organization.
Right now, these students are taking action by writing a grant to bring recycling centers to our schools ♻️ — helping create cleaner campuses and a more sustainable future for Fayette County.
Their commitment to leadership, service, and innovation is making a difference today and shaping a brighter tomorrow.

🔥 Learning Through Real-World Problem Solving! 🔥
Ms. Shuff’s Kindergarten class at NRP recently completed a Problem-Based Learning lesson with a meaningful community connection. During Fire Prevention Week, the class was visited by the Fire Department, where Chief Begley shared how firefighters provide stuffed animals to children who are involved in car accidents or experience house fires to help bring comfort during difficult moments.
Inspired by this story, students were challenged with an important problem: How can we help families who are victims of a total house fire? Through discussion, creativity, and teamwork, these young learners explored ways to support others while building critical thinking and compassion.
We are so proud of their learning in action! ❤️📚🚒

National School Counseling Week is observed from February 2 to 6 this year. If it wasn’t important, there wouldn’t be 111,000 school counselors in the U.S. alone. That comes to a ratio of about one counselor for every 455 students. Thank a counselor for all they do.
