Boone County Schools Superintendent Mr. Randy Poe

 

PoeWebAs Superintendent, I welcome you to our District. With a rich tradition of Achieving Excellence Together and our vision, the Boone County School District is recognized as the premier district in the Commonwealth of Kentucky and across the nation. The rapidly growing Boone County School District is the third largest in the state, with the highest test scores of any large school district in the Commonwealth. We are home to twenty-two (22) schools including four high schools, five middle schools and thirteen elementary schools serving nearly 20,000 students from pre-school through 12th grade and over 3,600 full and part time employees.

The nationally recognized Boone County School District has a strong tradition of excellence, experienced a great deal of success through the years and is recognized for our innovations and achievements. Boone County is a district that sets high expectations for students and provides a supportive atmosphere that produces student achievement. Our schools are focused on academic rigor, real world relevance, and focused relationships with our parents, students, and community.

 

As a district, we set the academic bar high and focus our energy on literacy and numeracy skills which are fundamental building blocks to success in all academic achievements and in career success. Our programming is guided by the following core beliefs: our children can learn to high expectations, education improves the quality of life, learning is a lifelong process, collaboration and communication are critical to making progress, and accountability is a critical component of achievement. I am confident that, working together with all facets of the community, we will see our students and schools attain even greater heights in the years ahead. We, in Boone County, invite you to visit our schools and experience the spectrum of educational opportunities available for our students. We are proud of our accomplishments and look forward to even greater academic accomplishments as we continue to enthusiastically prepare our students for the 21st century.
