Discover What's Happening in the Lawrence County School District! Introducing the LC Board Bulletin!
Take a moment to explore the latest happenings within our school district! This publication highlights each of our LC Board of Education meetings. Be sure to keep an eye out for highlighted features of each of our schools and their students throughout the year!
As we begin this school year, we celebrated our school district's summer achievements! The board presented the LC Food Service staff with certificates for providing over 57,000 meals to our LC families. Blaine Middle School celebrated with an open house to welcome the STAR Academy, which awarded a $1,000,000 grant to enhance 7th- and 8th-grade classes. The Back-to-School luncheon was also a profound success, uniting our teachers and staff throughout the district. The Lawrence County Professional Learning Conference 7.0 (LCPLC) offered sessions that taught positive, proven teaching techniques.
As we kick-start the new school year, we are excited to announce the start of design schematics and renovation work for Louisa East and the new Louisa West (formerly the LC Community Center). This initiative will create space for a first-grade wing at LEES. Additionally, our LWES preschool and kindergarten will transition into their newly renovated building. We can’t wait to provide these upgraded facilities to our students and families!
Stay tuned for more news from LC Schools! As a reminder, our next regular board meeting is scheduled for September 21st at the LCHS library. #LCisHome

Another staff birthday! Happy birthday, Mrs. Hughes!

This is an update. Following further evaluation of road conditions and widespread power outages this morning, multiple bus routes are impassable. To ensure the safety of students and staff, Lawrence County Schools will be CLOSED today, Monday, August 17. Stay safe today, LC!



Due to yesterday evening's storm, which left debris on roads and caused power outages, Lawrence County KY Schools will operate on a 1-hour delay today, Monday, August 17. Because our buses start early in the morning, this delay allows daylight for drivers and emergency teams to safely evaluate road conditions. Please travel safely. Any further updates will be shared through our normal channels. #LCisHome

Louisa West August events are attached. The class with the highest attendance in K and 1 will receive our weekly attendance banner! Let's kick the year off the right way.
Free Breakfast & Free Lunch Every Day at LC Schools!
A quick reminder to parents and guardians that breakfast and lunch are free of charge every day at all schools throughout the school district! Also, you can always check the FREE LC Schools App or through our website! #LCisHome

LC Schools receives the WHAS Crusade for Children Grant!
LC Schools has been selected to receive a $10,000 Grant Award for the 2026-2027 WHAS Crusade for Children! This generous grant will be used to support sensory-support classrooms, enabling children with unique abilities to unlock their full potential and lead lives filled with endless possibilities!
Mrs. Jamie Russell, LC Schools Director of Special Education & Preschool,
shared her excitement, saying, “We are truly grateful to the WHAS Crusade for Children for its support.
This grant will provide much-needed sensory supports that will help our students feel safe, regulated, and
ready to learn!”
The WHAS letters represent the call signs of WHAS-TV, a radio and television station located in Louisville, KY. Established in 1954, this annual charitable campaign serves as a public mission dedicated to raising funds for children with special needs, as well as addressing their health care, educational, and emotional wellness needs. LC Schools is grateful for their generosity and commitment to supporting the needs of children within our school system.

Power is back on at LC Board Office and Louisa Middle. Phone and internet up, but still random issues due to the earlier outage. Be patient if trying to reach our school offices. If you get a busy signal, please retry later or call our central office at 606-638-9671. Thank you.
Louisa Middle School and Lawrence County Board Office are currently without power. It is part of a larger outage also impacting the hospital and homes nearby. Our other schools all have power, but phones and internet are down at all of our buildings district wide. If you need to reach someone in our district, please come to the Board Office or one of the school offices. We will give an update once power has been restored. Thank you.
