✨Important Update on Traceable Communication (SB 181)💻
To ensure the safety and security of our students, we're sharing important information about a new Kentucky law, Senate Bill 181 (SB 181).
This law changes how our BCPS employees and volunteers can communicate electronically with students. We are implementing these new statewide standards to create a safer and more secure learning environment.
To stay fully informed on how this new law will be applied, please download our official BCPS app. It is our primary channel for direct communication with our families.

Our team shared powerful strategies for building community partnerships, designing innovative learning spaces, and aligning education with what truly matters for students. Sessions led by BCPS staff and district partners highlighted everything from virtual reality and natural playgrounds to culture-building and measurement systems that reflect our local community's hopes and dreams.
Even more inspiring? Our students took center stage and represented our district with pride through JROTC, choir, and band performances that reminded everyone why we do this work.

We closed our week with the most fundamental topic: School Safety. With crucial presentations from our Directors of Facilities, Human Resources, and Safe Schools, we reinforced that a safe and supportive environment is the bedrock upon which all great learning is built. We even had a fun surprise visit from our special guest, Mealton from the Food Service Department!🥪🍕🍔
From establishing our mindset and mission to creating transformation plans and reviewing support systems, this week was a powerful exercise in shared leadership.
Our deepest gratitude goes to our incredible school and district leaders. Your engagement, dedication, and unwavering commitment were truly inspiring. Because of you, we are energized, aligned, and ready for the year ahead!✨

From mindset (Day 1️⃣) and mission (Day 2️⃣) to a plan of action on Day 3️⃣ !
The work of Leadership Week continued today with a clear and critical focus: building Your 2025–26 School Transformation Plan. School teams dedicated their time to turning our shared vision into a concrete strategy for the year ahead.
This marks year one of a three-year journey toward a powerful district goal: by 2028, every student will consistently experience authentic learning to inspire and equip them to succeed in life.
This foundational planning isn't easy; it requires immense hard work and dedication. We want to pause and recognize the incredible determination of our leadership team. Their effort today is a powerful reminder that we truly have the best of the best leading our schools and our district.
