"We need a special month for women because it is a way to honor the strength, resilience, and achievements of women throughout history, as well as inspiring future generations. It allows us to give women the recognition and appreciation they deserve for working hard and stepping up in times of need."- Riya Patel

The Blended Learning 1st grade classes at Concord Elementary School have been studying plants this week. Thanks to Florista and Rex Beckham Greenhouse, the students had studios that included dissecting a flower, planting flowers in their pots, vocabulary review, and learning about the life cycle of plants. Students enjoyed a special Dirt Cup with gummy worms snack to finish the exciting unit. #McCrackenProud

McCracken County High School FFA members attended the Paducah Area Chamber of Commerce Power in Partnership Breakfast this morning. The March breakfast was sponsored by Four Rivers Nuclear Partnership with speaker Kentucky Agriculture Commissioner Jonathan Shell. A fifth-generation farmer, Commissioner Shell, alongside his dad Gary, owns and operates Shell Farms and Greenhouses in Garrard County where they raise cattle and grow flowers, corn, and pumpkins. Before being elected Agriculture Commission, Shell was elected to the Kentucky House of Representatives in 2012, becoming the youngest member of the General Assembly. Before the 2016 election, he was tapped by Republican leadership to spearhead recruitment. It was that year Kentucky elected its first Republican House Majority in nearly 100 years. FFA Members also went to the McCracken County Courthouse to help Commissioner Shell promote the Ag Tag program. When farmers renew their Ag Tags, a $10 donation goes to 4-H and FFA students all over the state. #McCrackenProud

We love our bus drivers and transportation staff. They bring our students to and from school every day safely. They are ambassadors for McCracken County Schools --but they are also leaders and mentors to students. From the garage staff to drivers to the front office staff, it takes an incredible team to transport thousands of children every day. We appreciate their training, professionalism, and care for our most precious cargo. School Bus Driver Appreciation Day is Thursday, February 22. Please take time to reach out and say "thank you" to your bus driver. #McCrackenProud

Last week, the fourth grade at Heath Elementary learned how Chef Sara Bradley from Top Chef and Freight House uses multiplying fractions and whole numbers to make recipes for large groups of people. After watching a video of Chef Bradley, students were placed in different “restaurants” with recipes for appetizers, main courses, and desserts. Students had the task of multiplying each ingredient by a whole number to accommodate bigger crowds at their restaurant, just like Chef Bradley does! Students made their shopping list after finding each product so they would know how much of each ingredient they needed! #McCrackenProud

"Sometimes people look at me differently because I am bi-racial and growing up, I was picked on because of it. As a kid, it was hard to understand. But as I grow and understand that not everyone is going to embrace that part of me, I have learned to embrace being black because it is WHO I am. Regardless of how people treat me, I have learned to put others first. Being black has taught me resilience, strength, and courage to face whatever comes because life is not always fair and not everyone is going to treat you fair. My motto is to rise above it and continue to learn to love like Jesus. Black culture is part of our bigger culture and should be embraced and not feared."- Kyler Toney #McCrackenProud
