We're one week out from Thanksgiving! Today, we're highlighting one of our favorite community outreach events of the year.
68 Years Strong! Our annual Jessamine County FFA Thanksgiving Food Drive is on schedule to help approximately 96 families in our district this year. Students are actively engaged in the planning process from contacting West Rock for boxes to package the food in, picking items up, coordinating drop off and pick up of items at other schools, packaging boxes for delivery and donating their time and energy to deliver food to families the week of Thanksgiving. This year, every box will directly impact a student's family who is enrolled Jessamine County Schools as we have shifted our focus solely to serving other students in the district. Through the support of community members, other schools in the district, local businesses, Family Youth Resource Centers, students and teachers, we can continue to provide for Jessamine County students!
From a Colt to an Eagle! 🦅Congratulations to Shelby Gaddis as she signs this afternoon with Carson-Newman University! 🎓 We're so proud of your hard work and dedication to the sport of swimming. We can't wait to see what you'll accomplish at the next level!

🤝 WJHS FCA students are making a difference in our community! Recently, they volunteered to pack meals at the Jessamine County Food Pantry for those in need. Their demonstration of service and compassion is a true indicator of connected citizenship, our graduate profile attribute for November. Together, we can make a positive impact on the world!
