New Student Organization at LCHS: Youth Environmental Health Coalition
The Science Department is excited to announce a new student organization at Lawrence County High School: The Youth Environmental Health Coalition. Chaired by Dr. Aggy Vanderpool and partnered with Ms. Patricia Shepherd of the Lawrence County Health Department, the Youth Environmental Health Coalition focuses on how the natural environment affects human health, including water, air, and soil quality. The University of Kentucky Healthy Way Program awarded the YEHC a grant to investigate surface water quality in Blaine Creek in Lawrence County. The study is titled, "Dangerous Waters: The Effects of Surface Water Contamination on Health and Well-Being in Lawrence County, Kentucky". This fall, YEHC students sampled Blaine Creek above and below Yatesville Dam as well as the public launch area at Yatesville Lake. The sampling included multiple water-quality chemical analyses and a quick scan for E. coli bacteria. YEHC students will present their findings in April at the University of Kentucky Healthy Way Appalachian Research Day.
Levi Roddenberry, LCHS Senior, YEHC member and member of the 2026-27 APES Class, shared, "The Youth Environmental Health Coalition has opened doors for leadership opportunities to connect what I learn to real work, and to do work that I really believe in. I hope to help educate the public with our discoveries."
LCHS students who participated in this event include: Rain Gerardi, Elle Parsley, Ethan Preece, Sophie Preece, Michelle Owens, Levi Roddenberry, Caden Slone, and Andrew Wolford.

In honor of National Principal Appreciation Month, LCHS proudly recognizes our high school principal, Mrs. McDavid, for her dedicated leadership, passion, and vision. A great principal sets the tone for an entire school—making an environment where both students and teachers feel supported, valued, and empowered to succeed.
Reflecting on the impact educators can have, Mrs. McDavid shares a personal perspective about two role models who shaped her own journey: "When I think about the educators who made the biggest difference in my life, I have to choose my parents because they both taught me something different that I still carry with me today. My mom has always had a way of making people feel heard, welcomed, and important. She sees the good in people and situations, and she is naturally everyone's biggest cheerleader. I also learned a lot about work ethic just by watching how much time and care she put into preparing for her classes each week. My dad taught me to be comfortable being myself and not spend too much time worrying about what other people think. He treated students with respect and taught in a way that made people want to listen and learn. I was lucky enough to have him as my teacher my senior year, and I learned so much from him about the world and about life. As a principal now, I see pieces of both of them in the way I lead. I want people to feel supported and valued, but I also want to be genuine, treat people right, and create a school where students and adults feel comfortable being themselves."
This commitment to partnership, character, and community lies at the core of effective education. As educational researcher Anne T. Henderson noted: "When parents are involved in their children’s education, the kids do better in school, the schools get better, and the community benefits." Thank you, Mrs. McDavid, for leading Lawrence County High School with heart, wisdom, and an unwavering commitment to our students and staff!

The Importance of Red Ribbon Week for Our Students! Red Ribbon Week is the nation’s oldest and largest drug prevention awareness initiative. This week provides a dedicated opportunity for schools, families, and communities to unite in promoting the significance of making safe, healthy, and drug-free choices.
Throughout the week, our emphasis extends beyond simply saying “no.” Students will learn how to:
- Make Healthy Choices & Decisions
- Build Character & Confidence
- Identify Trusted Adults
How Parents & the Community Can Get Involved! Drug prevention is most effective when schools and families work together. Here’s how you can support our students during this week:
- Start a dialogue by discussing safe choices and the risks associated with substance use with your child.
- Join in on spirit days and encourage your child to participate in our Red Ribbon Week dress-up days and activities.
- Let’s all serve as role models by promoting positive, healthy habits at home.
Together, we can work to build a safer, healthier future for our youth!

Dear LC Schools Families,
We know how much love, effort, and care you pour into getting your children ready for school every day. Being a parent comes with an endless list of responsibilities, and we see the incredible dedication you bring to our schools.
As we partner with you in your child’s education, we want to share a gentle reminder about school attendance. In Kentucky, chronic absenteeism is defined as missing 10% or more of the school year for any reason—including both excused and unexcused absences. That equals just 17 days in a whole school year, or about 2 days a month.
Because missing just two days a month can add up quickly, it can unexpectedly affect your child's learning momentum, reading progress, and social connections with friends and teachers.
We know that life happens—illness, family emergencies, and difficult mornings are real. Please know that our school doors and hearts are always open to you. If your family is facing challenges with transportation, morning routines, health, or anything else affecting school attendance, please reach out to us. We are here to support you, listen, and work together to find solutions.
Thank you for everything you do to support your child’s growth and for being such a vital part of our Lawrence County Schools family!
Warmly,
Lawrence County Schools
