October is National Principals Month, and we want to take a moment to celebrate the extraordinary leaders guiding our LC Schools every single day!

Our principals are the visionaries, problem-solvers, and biggest cheerleaders for our students, teachers, and staff. From early morning bus arrivals to late-night athletic games, performance rehearsals, and community events, their dedication creates safe, inspiring, and supportive environments where every student can thrive.

Thank you, principals, for your tireless hard work, leadership, and heart. You truly shape the future of our community, one school day at a time!

Help us celebrate! Drop a comment below to thank your school’s principal or share a favorite memory!

🐾❤️🖤 LC SCHOOLS CELEBRATES DOUG “BULLDOG” VANHOOSE! 🖤❤️🐾

After 39 years of dedicated service, LC Schools is celebrating a true Bulldog as he gets ready to begin his retirement! He ends his service to our schools within the Maintenance Department, where he will be deeply missed!

Doug “Bulldog” Vanhoose has been a beloved member of our school system for nearly four decades. Through the years, Doug has given his time, energy, and—most importantly—his heart to LC Schools.

Doug is more than an employee. He is part of the LC Schools family. His smile, personality, love for the Bulldogs, and passion for football have made him a familiar and cherished face throughout our schools and community. 🏈🐾

As Doug heads into retirement, we want him to know just how much he is appreciated. Thank you, Doug, for 39 incredible years of service to LC Schools! Your dedication and friendship have left a lasting mark on our district.

We wish you a retirement filled with plenty of relaxation, happiness, and time to enjoy the things you love most! 🏈❤️🖤

Congratulations on your retirement, Doug “Bulldog” Vanhoose!

Once a Bulldog, always a Bulldog! 🐾❤️🖤

LCHS Carpentry Class at KY Construction Career Days (K4C)

The LCHS Carpentry class recently participated in the Kentucky Construction Career Days (K4C) held in Shelbyville, KY! This engaging event connects 2,500 vocational and technical students with various construction and trade opportunities throughout the state.

Highlights of the Event:
- Students had the chance to operate heavy machinery, including lifts and excavators.
- They experienced walking on I-beams while securely harnessed.
- Numerous employers were present, actively recruiting, such as UPS, the Home Builders Association, and local municipalities within a 100-mile radius.

Several students were suprised by the annual salary of UPS drivers, and some are now exploring this career path. As always, it was an incredible event that highlighted numerous trade occupations for our students! We appreciate Mr. Bradshaw, our LCHS Carpentry Instuctor, for his dedication in assisting students in discovering careers that match their interests and skills in the trade industry.
