We're incredibly proud of our exceptional TPS family for earning a 100% Exemplary rating on their KECSAC evaluation! While we may be a little biased (okay, maybe a lot), we truly believe TPS is an outstanding school, and we're thrilled that the evaluators feel the same way!
Last week, some Jessamine County students had a ball at Adaptive Field Day, enjoying accessible, sensory-friendly activities designed for all abilities! From exciting games to hands-on exploration, these students were in a league of their own—proving that fun and accessibility are always a winning combination! ⚽🏆

Congratulations to these students for exhibiting excellent bus behavior in March and a shout out to Roger Turner, Jeremy Wheelock and Jackie Tolson for making positive impacts with these kids!
We had over 100 positive bus referrals submitted in March. Let's continue to keep our bus rides safe and positive this spring.
As a reminder to staff and drivers, please reteach bus expectations after Spring Break so we continue to respect the bus, each other, and our drivers and monitors.
Watching our little ones perform at the Jessamine Early Learning Village is always a highlight of the year. Great job Mrs Miller and students!
