Wayne County School students had a number of heroes to be inspired by at the recent Veterans Day celebrations. It was quite a day for teachable moments with opportunities for students to participate in and learn from individuals that know the real meaning of service.

Classes will be dismissed on Monday, November 18 in order for the teaching staff to have a mandated planning work session day from 12:00 noon to 6:00 p.m.

South Kentucky RECC and Kentucky’s Touchstone Energy Cooperatives this summer celebrated the graduation of eight teachers from an innovative program to lay the groundwork for creating a Kentucky workforce trained in science, technology, engineering and math (STEM). 

Walker students had fun following an upbeat exercise video they were doing in physical education class as they took turns participating in the Trikeathon in a wide hallway outside the classroom. P.E. Teacher Amy Cross shared the software program she uses in her classes with a few high schoolers from Shannon Foster's early childhood class to teach them about instructional tools. The high school students enjoyed assisting the young students who were able to raise $2,289.92 at school and online for the St. Jude Hospital service learning event.

That is certainly the goal for all Wayne County students, but there is a particular group of youngsters that may really be nailing that goal. They are known as the Page turners, thanks to an after school club they are attending.
