🏃‍♀️🏀 Learning Through Movement! 🏀🏃‍♂️ Mrs. White's and Ms. Nicole's Cubs had a blast in gym as they took turns, worked together, and rotated through different stations! 🔄✨ They’re showing what it means to be Active Collaborators and Engaged Citizens by encouraging their classmates, following directions, and making sure everyone gets a turn. 🤝💙 We love watching our Cubs love, learn, and lead—one station at a time! 🐾⭐

ATTENTION 3rd, 4th & 5th grade girls:

🌿☀️ Living Our Best Day at The Parklands! ☀️🌿 Our first grade Cubs from Ms. Miles' class loved being one with nature at The Parklands! 💚🐾 They spent the day learning about plants 🌱, exploring the outdoors, and finding special treasures in the creek! 💦🪨✨ Our Empowered Learners and Engaged Citizens were curious, adventurous, and ready to discover all that nature had to offer! What a beautiful day to Love. Learn. Lead. 🌿💙🐾

💦☀️ Water Day Fun in Mrs. Mac’s Class! ☀️💦 Mrs. Mac’s class had a splashtastic time during Water Day with our OT, Speech, and PT teams! 💧🫧 Our Cubs practiced being Active Collaborators as they worked together, played games, and had fun with friends. 🤝🎯 The day was full of sensory fun, movement, and lots of smiles! 💙 We love seeing our Cubs learn, grow, and have fun together as they love, learn, and lead! 🐾✨

This is for all SCPS families! Be sure to stop by and pick up a kit (but please sign up to let them know you're coming).

📚🐾 Learning What Stations Are All About! 🐾📚 Mrs. Dill’s class has been working hard to become Engaged Citizens and Active Collaborators as they learn what stations will look like this year! 🤝✨ Last week, our Cubs practiced their weekly words with stamps and Play-Doh 🔤🎨 and created their very own adorable Pete the Cat! 🐱💙 We love seeing our students build independence, work together, and have fun while learning. What a great way to love, learn, and lead! 🌟🐾

Stop by the Spencer County Bus Garage tonight from 5:00–7:00 PM to get behind the wheel, test drive a bus, meet our team, and learn what it takes to become a school bus driver.

We’re looking for full-time and part-time drivers, and no CDL or previous bus-driving experience is required. We provide paid training and help you through the process.

📍 Spencer County Bus Garage
1430 Townhill Road, Taylorsville
⏰ Tonight | 5:00–7:00 PM

If you’ve been thinking about a change, looking for work that follows the school calendar, or just curious about driving a bus—come see us tonight. No commitment. Just come give it a try!

What to expect on picture day:
When an order is placed online, the parent/guardian will receive a camera pass via email. This can either be printed or texted to the student and brought to picture day. The photographer will photograph the printed camera pass along with the student.

If a student is not able to print their camera pass, that is not a problem. We will match up the student to their order manually in the production process.

A parent may order from the flyer up until 24 hours after picture day. After 24 hours, the online ordering access may close. This will allow our imaging team to "Pull" all orders submitted and match them with the students photographed.

When pictures are returned to school, all students that purchased pictures will receive their prepaid package. Any student that was photographed but did not order a package, will receive a "Proof" (PX) of their picture that was taken on picture day.

All proof packages offer parents a second opportunity to order prints. All orders are subject to shipping and handling costs of up to $8.50 and will be shipped directly to home.

We are excited to host grandparents next week!

We’re still looking for a few great people to join the Spencer County Schools Transportation team!

If you’ve ever thought about driving a school bus but weren’t sure if it was for you, come out to our Test Drive a Bus event on Tuesday, September 15 from 5:00–7:00 PM at the Spencer County Bus Garage, 1430 Townhill Road.

We are looking for both full-time and part-time/substitute bus drivers.

There are a lot of great things about driving a school bus — a 180-day work calendar, working on the school schedule, summers and school breaks off, paid training, and benefits for full-time employees. It can be a great fit for retirees, parents, or anyone looking for a schedule that gives you more time at home.

You do not need a CDL or any previous bus driving experience to come out. That’s what we’re here for! Come meet our team, get behind the wheel, and see what driving a school bus is actually like.

Sometimes you just have to try it to know if it’s for you.

If you have questions, give us a call at 502-477-0006.

Please share — you never know who on your friends list might be a great fit for our team!
