We want to make you aware that a water main break in the area has led Spencer County High School to cancel after-school activities today. Our team is in constant communication with the City, and we are grateful for their quick response and partnership.
At this time, we do not anticipate any impact on school operations for tomorrow, Wednesday, September 3, 2025. If that changes for any reason, we will notify you immediately.
Thank you for your understanding and support as we work together to keep things running smoothly.
Dr. Willie Foster

Today was a big day for our newest students! They discovered which House they will belong to all the way through 5th grade. ๐๐โค๏ธ๐
Just like a family within our school, each House is a place where students will learn, grow, and cheer each other on. The excitement was contagious as students celebrated finding out where they belong!
We are so proud to see the joy, teamwork, and school spirit shining through already. ๐ซ
Check out these adorable photos from todayโs House Reveal!

I am writing to you today with some exciting news regarding significant renovations and construction that will soon be underway at Spencer County Middle School and Spencer County Elementary School campus. This is a project we have been planning for some time, and it will bring much-needed updates to both of our schools.
This week, youโve probably noticed the arrival of construction vehicles, equipment, and a job trailer as site work begins. This marks the start of an extensive, 20-month project that will transform both schools. We know that growth often comes with a few growing pains, and we appreciate your patience and cooperation as we navigate this process. There will be times when this work will impact our regular routines, especially during arrival and dismissal.
The work will be done in phases and will impact certain areas of the campus at different times. We plan to be in close communication with you through our regular channels as we get more detailed information about those impacts during each phase. The first phase will mainly impact exterior areas.
Just a few highlights of the work that will be completed:
Spencer County Middle School:
Major updates to the mechanical and lighting systems in each classroom
New flooring in the Great Hall / Lobby Area
A new, state-of-the-art multipurpose facility
A full renovation of the existing auditoriumโs seating, lighting, and sound system
Spencer County Elementary School:
Major updates to the mechanical and lighting systems in each classroom
A new roof, guttering, and fascia
A brand new gymnasium
The repurposing of the old gym space into a music/performance space and the addition of classroom space.
These long-overdue updates will ensure our students continue to learn and thrive in a safe and modern environment. We are committed to minimizing disruptions as much as possible while maintaining the highest safety standards for our students and staff.
Thank you for your understanding and continued support as we begin this important work. We will keep you updated on our progress and any logistical changes throughout the project.
Sincerely,
Dr. Willie Foster
Superintendent, Spencer County Schools
As we navigate this young school year, we want to ensure our district communication systems are a point of pride. Your ability to receive timely and accurate information, especially during an emergency, is one of our top priorities.
Today, we are conducting a comprehensive test of our communication systems, which includes phone calls, text messages, emails, and app notifications. This test will help us verify that our systems are working correctly and that your contact information is up to date.
To help us ensure a seamless communication experience for everyone, we kindly ask that you take a few moments to do the following:
Update Your Information: Whenever you change your phone number or email address, please call your child's school or the district office to have your contact information updated. We can't reach you if our records aren't accurate!
Keep Your SC Schools App Updated: Please make sure the SC Schools app is installed and regularly UPDATED on your device and that notifications are turned ON. This is one of the fastest ways we will communicate important information.
Let Us Know If You Didn't Receive It: If you did not receive this message as a phone call, text, email, and app notification, please let us know so we can help resolve the issue for you.
Thank you for your partnership. We are committed to making sure we can connect with every one of our families. We look forward to a fantastic school year!
Sincerely,
Dr. Willie Foster,
Superintendent
Weโre happy to share that the login issue with our school app and ROOMS has been resolved! ๐
You will now remain logged in and no longer need to repeatedly enter your username and password. This update should make accessing important school information much smoother and more convenient.
Please make sure your notifications are turned on so you donโt miss any updates, announcements, or messages from teachers and staff.
Thank you for your patience while we worked through this issue. If you have any questions or need assistance, feel free to reach out.

As you are aware, we have hired three new full-time drivers to help address capacity challenges and improve on-time arrivals. With that being said, several bus route changes will take effect Monday. These updates will help balance loads, reduce travel times, and keep routes running efficiently. As we continue to grow as a district, we will face some growing pains. Attached is information relating to route changes, an announcement has also been posted in Rooms.
The following routes will have changes โ some are major, some are minor: ๐, ๐, ๐, ๐, ๐, ๐, ๐, ๐๐, ๐๐, ๐๐, ๐๐, ๐๐, ๐๐.
Please verify the stop times and locations for your student. Weโve made high school and middle school loading as efficient as possibleโboth schools now clear the lot in about three minutes. Our elementary departure times depend entirely on how quickly the high school/middle school routes run which is part of the puzzle we are working to solve. With many sports starting earlier, and temperature, our goal is to get students home as quickly as possible.
๐๐ฅ๐๐ฆ๐๐ง๐ญ๐๐ซ๐ฒ ๐๐๐ซ๐๐ง๐ญ๐ฌ โ Please update your childโs transportation tag with the correct route before Monday morning. Stop times are estimates and will briefly change as we run these new routes. There are very few actual stop locations have changed. Some times may be big adjustments, but theyโll help close the gap between first and last drop-offs, get students home earlier, and leave a little more room on buses.
We know it will take a few days to settle into the new schedule, but these changes will make a positive difference for all riders.
If you have any questions, please email cameron.chesser@spencer.kyschools.us or send a message to me in Rooms and I will answer throughout the weekend.
