FCS Community, please see the message below from our School Safety Coordinator, Captain Abrams.
"We are hearing rumors that some social media posts are falsely reporting that some FCS Schools are in lockdown.
This is False. All schools are operating normally and there are no lockdowns in the district. "

Happy National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day!
Today, we celebrate and honor the incredible School Resource Officers (SROs) who work tirelessly to keep our schools safe and foster positive relationships within our communities. Their dedication, bravery, and commitment to our students and staff make a significant difference every day.
Let's take a moment to thank our SROs for their hard work and unwavering support. Your efforts do not go unnoticed, and we are truly grateful for everything you do.

Superintendent Mark Kopp had the opportunity to meet with Congressman James Comer today. The meeting, hosted by the Kentucky Association of School Administrators (KASA) in Frankfort, brought together many of our area's superintendents. They engaged in discussions about current legislative actions and funding for public schools, advocating for the needs of our educational institutions.
We extend our gratitude to Congressman Comer for his continued support of public education.
