Education

There is reason for the Marion County Public School District to be excited with the release of statewide test results Friday, which show that MCPS has improved from a “needs improvement” district to a “proficient and progressing” district. Compared to other schools in the state, the district made a big jump from the 60th percentile to the 83rd percentile.

Imari Hazelwood, a graduate student in literacy education from Lebanon, along with 13 members of WKU Habitat for Humanity Campus Chapter will spend their fall break in the West Liberty and Frenchburg areas to continue efforts to rebuild homes destroyed by tornadoes that swept through eastern Kentucky in March 2012.
Making its third trip to the region, WKU’s Habitat chapter will be working in the Menifee and Morgan county communities Oct. 3-5.
