I want to take a moment to address a recent story aired by KY3 that has sparked conversations within out community. While I cannot discuss the specifics of a student matter, I feel it’s crucial to express our unwavering commitment to protecting the privacy and well-being of every single student...
Saturday night October 5 at the Star Theater a fabulous Bluegrass group called Route 3 will be performing. It would be great to fill the historic theater that night as a way to thank Wendell and Joan Bailey, Sherry Lovan, and all who were involved in saving the theater. See you there for a great...
