Fourth and fifth grade students and LaRue County alumnus, Jeshua Logsdon, recently teamed with Abraham Lincoln Elementary School related arts teachers, Penny Akers, Verda Hacker, Pam Glaab and Cynthia Patterson, for a week-long dance residency. Trevor Ervin, a student teacher from Campbellsville University, also assisted in the residency.

Abraham Lincoln Elementary faculty and staff recently honored 205 students for their outstanding achievement on the 2010-11 Kentucky Core Content Test. Former fifth, fourth and third grade students who scored distinguished in at least one category were awarded gold medals while proficient students were recognized with silver medals. In addition, three students, Jake Walters, Mary Gearon and Skyler Hornback were awarded trophies for distinguished scores in all testing categories. Interim ALES Principal Amanda Reed presided at the ceremony.

 “Thank you for not only serving us, but allowing us to serve,” Michael Jennings, a freshman of Edmonton, said to Dr. Michael V. Carter, president, and Campbellsville University's freshmen classes in a service celebrating servant leadership.

Campbellsville University's First-Year Experience classes participated in servant leadership projects throughout the spring semester and shared their experiences in a celebration service. The service was a time of recognition for the students' accomplishments throughout the year.

 Hannah Conner, a student at Warren East High School, has been selected for the prestigious Governor’s Scholars Program.

She is among 13 juniors from the four high schools in the Warren County school system to participate in the five-week summer residential program on a college campus in Kentucky. Students are selected based on academics, extracurricular activities and community involvement.
