Homecoming Dance Tickets will go on sale today during lunch!
Students will be able to purchase tickets Monday - Thursday.
Tickets are $5.
The Homecoming Dance is on January 27th from 8:30 pm-11 pm. If your student is bringing an outside guest, he or she can pick up those forms in the front office. Outside guests must be approved by their school principal or designee on these forms to attend. This is the same process we've always used, so hopefully your student is familiar with the steps needed to bring someone who does not attend McCracken.

Due to continued hazardous road conditions, McCracken County Schools will be closed on Thursday, January 18. Thursday will be a normal Snow Day.
Just a reminder that buses don’t just travel major highways, they travel rural roads all over the county. Some of these roads are less traveled and take longer to be safely driven on. Also, the National Weather Service in Paducah has issued a Winter Weather Advisory for Thursday at 10:00 a.m. through Friday at 9:00 a.m. with freezing rain becoming a concern in McCracken County beginning around noon on Thursday. The safety of our students and staff is always our number one concern.
