Adair County Schools are striving to create a district culture based on Leadership and preparing students to be college and/or career ready with innovation paving the way.

Our goal is simple: To reinforce key principles from Kindergarten to Graduation which encompasses, thinking and behavior of leaders as well as long term planning, providing direction for each step of students educational career within the district.



Last week, Adair County Elementary School provided students with their first live, hands on, look at pathways of study and opportunities within our district and community.

Today, Tuesday, March 29, 2016, the Adair County High School hosted the "Find Your Future Expo" for Adair County Middle School 8th graders.

The idea for the future of our district is that students will have been exposed to their options, know their strengths and joys, and always be planning for their long term goals and life experiences.

Our new culture is being built every day and the "Find Your Future Expo" is just another brick in the foundation for our students; it is also the future culture of our district and what we are striving to create for the future of our community and generations to come.

- Shamarie Harper is Media Coordinator for the Adair County School District, 1204 Greensburg Road, Columbia, KY
