🌽 Tomorrow is Commodity to Product Twin Tuesday! 🌾

Grab a partner and show us how agriculture goes from farm to finished product! Think corn + popcorn, milk + ice cream, wheat + bread, or create your own combo!

👯 We can’t wait to see our ag twins tomorrow!

We’re kicking off a new series today: Made with Care Monday.

Each week, we’ll introduce one of our school Nutrition Services teams and give a little extra recognition to the people who care for our students in so many ways. Their work is about much more than serving meals. They know our kids, encourage them, notice when someone needs a little extra kindness and help make the cafeteria feel like a place where students belong.

We’re starting with the Temple Hill Elementary team: Rashya McGowan, Sarah Jackson, Staci Harbison, Amy Cochran and Renee Adams.

If you see someone you know, give them a shout-out in the comments and help us thank them for all the care they give our students each day.

Today is the final day to take the Safe Schools Pledge, and Barren County is currently second in the state with 2,675 pledges.

School safety takes all of us. Every student, staff member, parent, and community member who chooses to be aware, speak up, and look out for others helps strengthen the safety of our schools.

One person’s commitment matters, and together, those individual commitments make a powerful difference.

Help us finish Safe Schools Week strong. Take the pledge today and help Barren County reach #1 in Kentucky!

Art gives students another way to find their voice. Some students find their place in a classroom. Others find it on a stage, at an easel, or with an instrument in their hands. During Arts in Education Week, we’re celebrating the many ways our students express themselves, build confidence, and share their ideas through the arts.

🌾 We’re ALL IN for Ag Education Week! 🚜💚

Get ready to celebrate September 21–25 with a full week of dress-up days highlighting the many ways agriculture impacts our lives, our careers, and our Kentucky communities!

From dressing for an agribusiness career to finding your commodity-to-product twin, showing off your work-safe gear, choosing country vs. country club, and ending the week by honoring the legacy of Dale Dobson, there’s something fun and meaningful planned for every day.

Agriculture is so much more than farming—it’s business, science, food, transportation, education, safety, and so much more. Let’s celebrate the people, products, and careers that keep Kentucky growing!

We can’t wait to see everyone dressed up!

AG ED DRESS UP DAYS
"For all our citizens, this memorial will be a reminder of the resilience of the American spirit. As we walk among the benches, we will remember there could have been many more lives lost. On a day when buildings fell, heroes rose: Pentagon employees ran into smoke-filled corridors to guide their friends to safety. Firefighters rushed up the stairs of the World Trade Center as the towers neared collapse. Passengers aboard Flight 93 charged the cockpit and laid down their lives to spare countless others. One of the worst days in America's history saw some of the bravest acts in Americans' history. We'll always honor the heroes of 9/11. And here at this hallowed place, we pledge that we will never forget their sacrifice."
-From George W. Bush's speech at the dedication of the 9/11 Pentagon Memorial
