Community Members,

As we prepare for tonight’s ballgames, we want to share a few important updates.

Despite our efforts to clear the high school campus, there is still some snow and ice present in certain places.
We encourage fans to tune in to BC Live on YouTube to support our student-athletes. Watching online allows everyone to enjoy the game while avoiding difficult travel and campus conditions and will allow the limited parking to be available for our players and their families. The link to view is www.youtube.com/@BCHSLive/streams.

If you choose to attend in person, please plan ahead and use extra caution when traveling and while on campus.

Parking and entry information:

-Limited parking is available in the front lot only.
-The access road and roads leading to the rear of the school will be closed and blocked.
-Please use the cleared entry/sidewalk areas only. Caution tape will indicate the cleared versus not cleared areas.
-The ticket window will be open at the standard location.
-The “passgate” has been moved to the front sidewalk entrance beside the Trojan locker room. The standard passage entrance will be locked.

We appreciate the continued support of our students and thank our community for helping us prioritize safety.

Go Trojans and Trojanettes!

Dear BC Families,

Due to winter weather conditions, tomorrow, Tuesday, February 3, will be a traditional snow day for Barren County Schools. Many roadways across our district remain snow- and ice-covered, creating hazardous travel conditions.

There will be no NTI work assigned. After several challenging days, we feel it's in the best interest of our students to pause and reset.

Please stay safe and warm. We appreciate your continued support and flexibility during this winter weather season.

In Service,

Dear Barren County Schools Families,

With continued low temperatures and additional snow overnight, many of our roads, parking lots, and walkways remain icy and unsafe. For everyone’s safety, Monday, February 2, will be NTI Day #5. Teachers will be communicating expectations and will be available throughout the day on Monday to provide support.

We understand that some of our families are just now getting power restored. Please know that when we return to school, time and support will be provided for any students who were unable to complete NTI work due to weather-related impacts.

Thank you for your continued flexibility and support as we work through these winter conditions. Please take care, stay safe, and reach out to your school if you have any questions or need assistance.

We truly appreciate our families.

BC Families,
We know this week has been a lot, and we truly appreciate your patience as our community continues to deal with winter weather, icy conditions, and power outages in some areas.

Friday, January 30, will be NTI Day #4 and is intended to be a time for students to check in with teachers, ask questions, and catch up on previously assigned work. Teachers will be available to support students, and new assignments will be limited.

We understand that families are navigating different challenges right now. When we are able to return to school, our staff will work with students to make sure they have the time and support they need to complete any work affected by the weather.

Changes in routine and increased time online can be challenging for students. We encourage families to check in often with their children, monitor online activity, and promote kindness and safety online. School counselors are available if your child needs additional support.

Thank you for taking care of one another and for your continued support of Barren County Schools. Please continue to check the BC Schools app and our official communication channels for updates. Stay safe!

In Service,
Amy Irwin, Superintendent

BC Families,

As winter weather continues to impact our community, including hazardous travel conditions, extreme cold temperatures, and ongoing power outages in some areas, Wednesday, January 28, and Thursday, January 29, will be Non-Traditional Instruction (NTI) days. Teachers will communicate expectations for NTI work and will be available to support students as needed.

We know this has been a challenging time, and we appreciate your patience as we work through these conditions together. We recognize that power-outages and other weather-related disruptions continue to impact some households. Please know that schools will work with students to provide flexibility and time to complete assignments when we are able to return to in-person learning.

We will continue to closely monitor conditions as we determine plans for the days ahead. As always, safety remains our top priority, and we thank families for their cooperation, flexibility, and understanding during this extended period of severe weather.
