I hope this finds everyone well rested after a week-long break. We have six weeks left of this school year and those weeks will pass furiously due to the number of activities that are scheduled for this time period.
Our end of the year assessment window will open on May 2 and close on May 19. During this time period, we will administer KPREP exams, EOC (End of Course) exams and AP exams. We ask that you please be mindful of this time period when scheduling student appointments during the month of May.
We have several 10th grade students who will be participating this week in the American Private Enterprise System, which is a program designed to give students the opportunity to gain insight into the business world. Below is more specific information about the APES program:
The American Private Enterprise Youth Program is developed and coordinated by the Kentucky Council of Cooperatives and the University of Kentucky, College of Agriculture, Agricultural Economics Department. A primary program objective is to provide high school juniors, sometimes seniors, with an appreciation of cooperatives as one of the important forms of doing business in the American enterprise system.
For outstanding young people who excel in this program, the council provides a limited number of all-expense-paid scholarships to attend the Kentucky Youth Seminar each summer, a program developed and conducted jointly by the council and the university.
At the Kentucky Youth Seminar, students compete for over $10,000 in scholarships and cash prizes. Participants are invited to share their experiences with council members at special meetings and also in meetings of member cooperatives and other groups.
Students chosen to participate in this event include the following: Maleah Buckner, Javier Bullock, Camron Caldwell, Mia Devinney, Katie Ray Holloman, Ellie Myers, Jacob Naylor, Ashley Pitts, Anna Shoulders and Jeffrey Steele.
Congratulations to those chosen to represent our school this year!
