Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

"Christmas gift suggestions: 
To your enemy, forgiveness. 
To an opponent, tolerance. 
To a friend, your heart. 
To a customer, service. 
To all, charity. 
To every child, a good example.
                          To yourself, respect."

Final Push

Love is what's in the room with you at Christmas if you stop opening presents and listen.
— Author unknown, attributed to a 7-year-old named Bobby


We've made it—the week before Christmas!  The final push for getting our work turned in is on.  Encourage your students to use tutoring this week.  Encourage them to study.  Finals will be Thursday for 1st, 3rd, 5th, and 7th periods and Friday for 2nd, 4th, and 6th periods.

We hope you and your family have a wonderful Christmas!  Get some rest.  Read a good book.  Help your student set some goals (i.e. be better today than you were yesterday) for 2015. 

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

Things Are Ramping Up

With two weeks to go before break, one might think we would be slowing down.  Just the opposite is happening. 

Tonight (Monday) come out to our annual Scott County HS Winter Choral Concert at 7 pm. Approximately 300 kids performing in the choirs will help get you into the Holiday Spirit!! Tickets ($7.00) are available at the Singletary Center box office.

The world languages students will provide a concert to the elementary kids and to the public.  Check with lucas.gravitt@scott.kyschools.us for more information.

ECS presentations are going on this week.  Contact regina.mingua@scott.kyschools.us for a schedule.

Our girls and boys basketball teams have started their season.  Contact joe.covington@scott.kyschools.us for a schedule.

Be sure to watch our website and morning announcements for more activities.

In addition to all our extra-curricular, we are trying to finish the semester strong.  We sent home progress reports Friday.  Help us to help your student finish strong!  I love this illustration.



 We are in the “what really happens” stage.  I know it’s hard for your student to see the success which will come.  Keep encouraging.  We will too!  Together we build success.
