Constitution Day good day to complete your 2020 Census

Article I, Section II of the Constitution calls for an “actual Enumeration” to be “made within three Years after the first Meeting of the Congress of the United States, and within every subsequent Term of ten Years, in such Manner as they shall by Law direct.” The first “Enumeration” took place in 1790, and has been conducted every 10 years since.

By Dr. Steve Dillingham, Director

Two hundred and thirty years ago, by foot and on horseback, U.S. Marshals visited every single household across our young nation. During that first census, Congress expected to find about 2 million people living in the country. When the results came back in 1793, the population exceeded 3.9 million.

The Constitution had set the number of Representatives at 65 from 1787. The first apportionment, based on the 1790 census, resulted in an increase to 105 members.

Governor's Thursday update

By Crystal Staley/Sebastian Kitchen

Frankfort, KY -. (Sept. 17, 2020) As of 4 p.m. Sept. 17, Gov. Beshear said there were at least 59,370 coronavirus cases in Kentucky, 628 of which were newly reported Thursday. Seventy-six of the newly reported cases were from children ages 18 and younger, of which 14 were children ages 5 and under. The youngest was only 2 months old.

"Good news: We are still below 4% in our positivity rate at 3.82%. So again a couple of notes: It means that we have significant testing going on. It means our positivity rate is going down, which is a good thing," said Gov. Beshear. "But remember, it's not because we are testing folks that we do better, it's because of our actions. It's because of social distancing, it's because of wearing a mask. We believe that mask mandate is working and without it our numbers and our positivity rate would go up."

Unfortunately, Gov. Beshear reported 11 new deaths Thursday, raising the total to 1,093 Kentuckians lost to the virus.

From Cayce Davenport

Today, the students and staff of Adair County Schools are mourning the loss of one of their own. Vicki Leibeck-Owsley passed away overnight. She was a fierce friend, a compassionate role model, a selfless strong woman, and a kind soul.

The next chapters have already been drafted through the many lives she has touched. Let's pay her tribute and lift up prayers for her family.

A vigil for Vicki will be held tonight, Thursday, September 17, 2020, at the Circle drive and grassy lawn at ACHS at 7pmCT. There will be hand sanitizing stations and extra masks on hand - parking lots will be open - student lot, teacher lot, and the lot behind the gym. Do not park in the circle drive.

Governor's Wednesday update

By Crystal Staley/Sebastian Kitchen

Frankfort, KY - Gov. Andy Beshear on Wednesday updated Kentuckians on the state's continuing efforts to fight the novel coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19).

"In general, what we are seeing is we still have higher case numbers than we would like to see, but we don't at the moment see those accelerating from last week or the week before," the Governor said. "We see our positivity rate coming down, and that is a good thing."

Case Information
As of 4 p.m. Sept. 16, Gov. Beshear said there were at least 58,764 coronavirus cases in Kentucky, 776 of which were newly reported Wednesday. Ninety-one of the newly reported cases were from children ages 18 and younger, of which 13 were children ages 5 and under. The youngest was only 3 months old.

"We continue to see this trend, where more and more kids are testing positive. They are becoming a bigger percentage of our positivity rate for a couple of reasons," the Governor said. "One, thankfully, kids are being tested more often, and two, they are out doing more. But remember as we are making these decisions, our belief is that kids can transmit this virus as easily as anybody else."
