Thank you, Fayette police officers and Officer Nicky Ferguson, for showing our Adulting 101 class, “What to do… and what NOT to do when you are pulled over”. We appreciate you!





Inspired Wendy Ewald's book, The Best Part of Me, Mrs. Thompson's 5th Graders wrote poems and prose about something they love about themselves. They talked and wrote about how we are connected to our favorite activities, our family heritage, and how our talents and interests are expressions of ourselves. They took and edited pictures to express their favorite part, and wrote their poetry about their image. Awesome work, Blackbirds!

It’s the little things that make the biggest impact. It’s the smiles, the words of encouragement, the wiping away of tears. It’s the extra time spent helping a student after class, the wave from the bus driver, and the dedication to detail. It’s the “hello!” in the lunch line, the mowing precise lines, the friendly greeting to visitors in the office. It’s all the little things that make the biggest impact. There are many ways we are thankful for our Blackbird staff, but it’s the little things–done over time and done with love and a servant’s heart–that make the biggest impact.
Happy Staff Appreciation Week, Blackbird staff! You are second-to-none!
