Father in heaven, all creation rightly gives you praise, for all life and all holiness come from you. In the plan of your wisdom she who bore the Christ in her womb was raised body and soul in glory to be with him in heaven. May we follow her example in reflecting your holiness and join in her hymn of endless love and praise. We ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen.
Faith in Education School Year Theme
“Who do you say that I am?”-Matthew 16:15
This essential question calls each of us to reflect on who Jesus is in our lives, shaping how we pray, live, and face challenges. Jesus knew the disciples’ understanding of Him would guide their lives, and the same is true for us.
This year, our goal is a deeper encounter with the Lord. We encourage students to choose a word that describes who Jesus is to them, reflecting their personal faith journey throughout the year. We are excited to dive into this school wide theme throughout the year.

Vote YES on Amendment 2
Voting YES on Amendment 2 will:
-Give parents more choice in their child’s education
-Increase education funding
-Increase teacher pay
-Protect public school funding
-Help low-income and disabled students
-Give more opportunities to all students regardless of their background
-Provide more opportunities for students with special needs
-More innovation in education policies
The FACTS:
-KY is one of 2 states (North Dakota) that does not offer students and parents educational opportunities for school choice.
-Every state around KY has educational opportunities like those in Amendment 2.
-As it stands today, wealthy students have school choice in KY. It is the less advantaged students who are not able to seek the education that fits their needs. -KY’s education structure was established in 1891. A lot has changed since then, but the structure has not.
