Student attendance has been great since our return from Christmas Break. We appreciate everyone's efforts as we finish this school year strong. After today, we only have 73 school days remaining until Summer break.
The attached document should help with major events coming up but also check out the schools and district websites and facebook pages for more events and additional details. The final day for students will become clearer as we get closer to spring. Once we have a better idea what the last day is, we can set all graduation dates and end of year events.
There WILL be school in Lee County on Monday, January 27th but we will not be able to run all bus routes. Buses will NOT be able to run on Fraley Farm Road, Fincastle Road on Shoemaker, Todds Road in Cresmont, Blaines Branch, Paw Paw Road, Dunigan Branch, Coomer Fork or Wide Creek. If you live on those roads please follow the snow plan designated locations to meet your bus (www.lee.kyschools.us).
Our 2024-25 Lee County Schools calendar has been updated and is available on our website (https://www.lee.kyschools.us/). Our last day for students is currently, Thursday, May 22nd. We have used 8 of our 10 NTI days.
We also understand that weather and lack of school can be frustrating for everyone. We do not take cancelling school or issuing NTI days for granted. We typically have multiple staff checking the majority of our bus routes and bus turnarounds to see if there is any way to have school prior to making any type of official announcement. There are many times that we would love to have school but its just not safe for our students and drivers.
There will be NO School on Friday, January 24th. This will be a traditional snow day that will be added to the end of the school calendar year. We checked a larger portion of our bus routes today but there were just too many issues with bus turnarounds, icy areas and a few tree's blocking routes. We will check roads on Sunday and hope to return to school on Monday.
Thank you for your patience as we all work our way through this winter season.

Lee County Schools would like to recognize Wendell Brandenburg for going above and beyond. Mr. Brandenburg has helped our transportation department, students and staff for decades. He shows up to work daily and helps with whatever is needed. After school, there is no telling how many miles that he has traveled with various clubs, extra-curricular groups and athletic teams over the years. If you were involved with any group after school, there is a good chance Wendell was your driver a time or ten. Please help us tell Mr. Brandenburg know how much we appreciate him.
Lee County Schools would like to recognize Candice Jewell for going above and beyond. Mrs. Jewell helps coordinate and lends a hand with lots of our daily events at Lee County Elementary. She helps our less experienced staff from lessons to planning. If you are at LCE, LCMHS or a baseball field around, you will see her spending countless hours helping and supporting lots of our student athletes. The next time you see Mrs. Jewell, let her know how much she is appreciated.
Lee County Schools would like to recognize Chuck Caudill for going above and beyond. Mr. Caudill has always helped with clubs, auctions and anything that was needed for many years. Last year, he became a full time teacher for us at LCMHS. He has excelled ever since. Recently, he used his vast theater experience to help our students produce and perform one of our first plays in many years. Many departments and students took part and it all came together. Please tell Mr. Caudill how much we appreciate him when you see him.
