Students in Mrs. Napier's 5th grade class at Cold Hill Elementary are estimating, rounding, adding, and subtracting decimals with measurements from their pumpkins.
New this year to Laurel County School buses is the installation of Stop Arm cameras. The small cameras, about the size of a cell phone, are located directly below the Stop sign that is activated during a school bus pick-up/ drop-off. The cameras turn on and begin recording when motion is detected during a bus pick-up/drop-off. It is illegal to pass a school bus when the Stop Arm is activated.
Student safety is the number one priority for Laurel County Schools. The Laurel County Schools Police Department will be working with the London Police Department and the Laurel County Sheriff's Office to ensure drivers obey the law.
We encourage drivers to be alert and aware as Laurel County Schools welcome nearly 9,000 students back to school this Thursday, August 10, 2023. Allow extra time and be prepared for delays the first couple of days.
Laurel County Public Schools Superintendent Dr. Doug Bennett has announced his retirement after 31 years in education. Dr. Bennett has led Laurel County Public Schools for the last 11 years. His last day will be July 31, 2023.
A full press release will be coming soon.
