Every Student Matters and Every Day Counts in BCPS!✨

Happy 10th Day of the School Year!

As we start the 10th school day of the 2025-2026 School Year, we wanted to highlight our goal to reduce Chronic Absenteeism among our students in Bullitt County Public Schools.

Did you know that missing 10% of school is considered to be Chronic Absenteeism, no matter what the reason is for the absence?
For example, if you have already missed 1 day during the first 10 days of the school year, then you are considered Chronically Absent from school, no matter if the absence was excused or unexcused.

We hope that as the year progresses we see the number of students that are chronically absent decrease, as we all know that school success starts with attendance! We have added some resources that the Kentucky Department of Education has shared with us about Chronic Absenteeism for you to review and discuss with your student. (See Image)

Thank you for your support in helping us "build more with 94"!

School In Session
We are closely monitoring the ongoing water main issues in the Mt. Washington community. The safety of our students and staff remains our top priority. We are in constant contact with city officials on the situation. A final decision on whether schools will be open tomorrow, Wednesday, August 20, will be announced by 5:00 AM. We understand this uncertainty is difficult for planning and we deeply appreciate your patience and partnership.

School Status Update
Thank you for your understanding as we navigate an urgent situation in our community. A major water main break has left our schools without running water, functioning toilets, or HVAC systems. With outside temperatures nearing 90 degrees, it is not safe to keep buildings open for students and staff.

As a result, all Bullitt County Public Schools will be closed today, August 19. This is not an NTI day. At this time, we do not have a timetable for when service will be restored, but we will continue to monitor the situation and share updates as quickly as possible.
High school students who were already in transit this morning are being returned home by bus.

We recognize the disruption this causes for families, and we are deeply grateful for your flexibility and patience as we work through this challenge. Please continue to check district communication channels for the latest information.

Thank you for your continued partnership and support of our students and staff.

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.
