Anderson County Schools

Poets like Emily Dickinson have written about it. Pink Floyd referenced it in lyrics. Biologists study its affect on animals. Astronomers study the science behind it. Artists have depicted it in various forms of media. I’m talking about a total solar eclipse-- and one is happening on April 8th!

Please take a moment to view the attached document concerning information, upcoming dates, and actions steps for kindergarten and preschool enrollment.

Participating in the 22nd CTE Student Leadership Day in Frankfort on Tuesday, Feb. 13, 2024, were 8 members of the Anderson County FFA from Anderson County High School. Approximately 300 students and advisors from across Kentucky attended the day-long event.

Anderson County Schools principals recently received the results of the Impact Working Conditions Survey, which reflects the ways teachers feel about their professional environment (from their own abilities within it, to feelings concerning colleagues, to resources available in their schools, to school leadership). What we see when looking at the data from 2023-2024 is that Anderson County is on trend with what we expected to see based on various factors within in each of our schools as well as on the continued impact of our recovery from the pandemic and its affect on our teachers and students.

Anderson County Schools were made aware that this afternoon, January 8th, while traveling along 127 and 44 near Walmart, a car collided with Anderson County School bus #9, which was stationary in the turn lane. There were 52 students on board. The driver of the car as well as two students were checked by EMS at the scene. We have since reached out to the families of both students and are also in the process of notifying the parents of all students on board bus #9. We want to express our gratitude to first responders for promptly reporting to the scene and to our parents for being patient as we continue to verify details for communication.

Dear families, as we approach the time of year when inclement weather can cause school closures and dismissals, we wanted to communicate with you our plans for NTI and snow days. In anticipation of weather-related events, please (1) ensure that your information is up-to-date and that you have opted in to receive text messages in Infinite Campus so you will receive appropriate communication* and (2) review the information linked below concerning specifics about the work your student will be completing on those days. Links in the final section are clickable and will open separate documents with additional information.
