Woodford County Public Schools Students, Families, and Staff Members,

We know it has been a very challenging end of January and beginning of February. We are certainly thankful for the sunshine today! We are also thankful for your patience and partnership during the winter storm and resulting school closure.

We want to take a moment to highlight the hard work and collaborative effort of the WCPS custodial and maintenance teams, county and city leadership, local emergency management, and roads department for their tireless efforts in clearing roads, parking lots, and sidewalks during the harsh winter storm. Thank you to our transportation department for cleaning and maintaining buses and for checking roads. It was such a team effort to open schools, and we are grateful for everyone involved in the effort.
