On Thursday, our FRYSC–YSC had the honor of welcoming Miss Kentucky to speak with our high school students. She shared her inspiring story and reminded our students of the power of perseverance, purpose, and using your voice. What made the day even more special was that our FFA students were able to present her with a Raising Hope Challenge Coin! It’s a great day to be a Lion!! 👏🏼😊🦁💫🌸

Sometimes we all need a little extra support, and today the FRYSC was thankful to provide food boxes to families in our community ❤️ If you or someone you know could use a helping hand, please don’t hesitate to reach out to the FRYSC. We are always here to support our Lions family! 🦁📦

Today was an incredible opportunity as Elliott JAG brought a group of young adults to Marathon Marine in Ashland, KY for Career Day! They had the chance to explore career pathways, learn about opportunities in the marine industry, and see firsthand how skills, hard work, and dedication can lead to exciting futures. Thank you to Marathon Marine for investing in the next generation and inspiring our students as they begin thinking about their own career journeys! Where’s the job applications??? #JAGKY #marathonmarine

🚀 6th grade scientists are officially thinking like space engineers! This week we explored what makes life possible on Earth, the real challenges of surviving on Mars, and the problems future colonists would have to solve. Today, teams used a strategy board game to plan the engineering and mental health zones for their Mars colonies—carefully weighing criteria, constraints, risks, and creative solutions before they ever start building. Big thinking, problem solving, and collaboration as we design life on the Red Planet! 🔴🪐 #PBL #STEM #MarsColony #FutureEngineers

Real-life learning happening in JAG! 👏🦁 Adulting isn’t always easy—and learning how to navigate the real world can feel overwhelming for young adults. Today, our JAG students took on an important life skill by learning how to make a doctor’s appointment! ☎️🩺 With the help of our school nurse, Christian Evans, students practiced answering questions, explaining their “ailments,” and building confidence in handling real-life situations. 💪✨ The nerves were definitely there at first, but they did an AMAZING job stepping outside their comfort zones and gaining valuable experience for the future! A huge THANK YOU to Christian Evans for taking the time to help our students today! ❤️ #JAGKY #RealWorldSkills #BuildingConfidentLeaders #ElliottCountyLions
