Today, we are honoring our school nurse, Bethany King,
At Barren County Middle School, we know that students learn best when they are healthy, safe, and supported. Nurse King is at the heart of that mission every single day. Whether she’s treating a scraped knee, managing complex health needs, or just offering a kind word and a steady presence, her impact on our Trojan family is immeasurable.
Thank you, Nurse King, for your dedication, your expertise, and the compassionate care you provide to our students and staff.
