Barren County School District
Where Opportunity Creates Success
It’s another Made with Care Monday!
We’re continuing our weekly celebration of the Nutrition Services teams who make a difference in our students' lives every day. From serving meals to sharing a smile, offering encouragement, and creating a welcoming cafeteria environment, these team members bring care to everything they do.
This week, we’re recognizing Jennifer Payne, Pam Medley, Tonya Polson, Savannah Depp, and Tessa Medley! Thank you for the time, kindness, and care you give our students each day.
If you see someone you know, give them a shout-out in the comments and help us celebrate these wonderful team members!

Our Central Office superhero usually wears work clothes instead of a cape, but today we thought Mike Bragg deserved one.
For National Custodian Appreciation Day, we’re thanking Mike for his hard work, the laughter he brings to our days, and the care he shows the people around him. He has a silly side we love and is just as quick to show concern when someone needs it.
Thank you, Mike, for taking such good care of our building and all of us who work here. We’re glad you’re part of our team!

Throwback Thursday!
As we celebrated another unforgettable Senior Night, we’re kicking it back to 1997! About three decades ago, these senior soccer players were making memories, representing their school, and showing off that Trojan pride on the field!
From 1997 to 2026, the tradition continues! Here’s to the seniors who came before us, the memories made along the way, and the next generation of Trojans carrying it forward.

It’s Transportation Tuesday!

Today, we’re shining the spotlight on three outstanding members of our transportation family: two fantastic bus drivers and one incredible bus monitor!
Thank you for showing up each day with care, patience, and a commitment to keeping our students safe. We appreciate everything you do for our students and the Barren County Schools community!

We’re kicking off a new series today: Made with Care Monday.
Each week, we’ll introduce one of our school Nutrition Services teams and give a little extra recognition to the people who care for our students in so many ways. Their work is about much more than serving meals. They know our kids, encourage them, notice when someone needs a little extra kindness and help make the cafeteria feel like a place where students belong.
We’re starting with the Temple Hill Elementary team: Rashya McGowan, Sarah Jackson, Staci Harbison, Amy Cochran and Renee Adams.
If you see someone you know, give them a shout-out in the comments and help us thank them for all the care they give our students each day.
