Barren County School District
Where Opportunity Creates Success
Today we’re celebrating Information Technology Professionals Day!
This team keeps Barren County Schools connected, supported, and moving forward every single day. They solve problems, introduce new tools, and keep countless systems running.
Caden, Jamie, Kris, Clay, Cooper, and Lacie, thank you for answering our questions, fixing our problems, finding solutions, and helping us use technology to better serve our students and staff.
Most of all, thank you for being patient when we didn't reboot our machines before we called you! 😁 We appreciate everything you do!

Art gives students another way to find their voice. Some students find their place in a classroom. Others find it on a stage, at an easel, or with an instrument in their hands. During Arts in Education Week, we’re celebrating the many ways our students express themselves, build confidence, and share their ideas through the arts.

🌾 We’re ALL IN for Ag Education Week! 🚜💚
Get ready to celebrate September 21–25 with a full week of dress-up days highlighting the many ways agriculture impacts our lives, our careers, and our Kentucky communities!
From dressing for an agribusiness career to finding your commodity-to-product twin, showing off your work-safe gear, choosing country vs. country club, and ending the week by honoring the legacy of Dale Dobson, there’s something fun and meaningful planned for every day.
Agriculture is so much more than farming—it’s business, science, food, transportation, education, safety, and so much more. Let’s celebrate the people, products, and careers that keep Kentucky growing!
We can’t wait to see everyone dressed up!

"For all our citizens, this memorial will be a reminder of the resilience of the American spirit. As we walk among the benches, we will remember there could have been many more lives lost. On a day when buildings fell, heroes rose: Pentagon employees ran into smoke-filled corridors to guide their friends to safety. Firefighters rushed up the stairs of the World Trade Center as the towers neared collapse. Passengers aboard Flight 93 charged the cockpit and laid down their lives to spare countless others. One of the worst days in America's history saw some of the bravest acts in Americans' history. We'll always honor the heroes of 9/11. And here at this hallowed place, we pledge that we will never forget their sacrifice."
