Marion County Public Schools is committed to expanding our Ready-Set-Grow Book Initiative for students between ages 0-4 by providing more families with reading material at home.

Community Birthday Bash

Marion County Public schools partnered with Springview Hospital, Central Kentucky Head Start, HANDS, First Steps, and CECC to give children in our community a Big Birthday Bash!  We had 100 people in attendance with 41 being children from Birth to 4 years of age.

It was wonderful seeing so many happy families come together-we are so thankful for all in attendance.  Please share the word---next year we want 200 people at our event.

Parents were provided resources, information, door prizes, and a book (author-Rosemary Wells).  We were honored to have the Birthday Bunny greet the children and families.  Also, as any good birthday party---cupcakes were served!

Books Given To All 3 and 4 year old Students in Marion County

Marion County Schools presented to all 3 and 4 year old children in Marion County Preschool, Head Start, St. A., Cornerstone To Learning, Loretto Preschool, and Kid's Place with a Christmas Book.  The children received, Max's Christmas by Rosemary Wells.  *If you have a child not attending any of these programs and your child is 4 years old--please contact us and we will make sure your child receives a book.    

Marion County Public Schools encourages all parents to read to their children 20 minutes a day (also known as R20). Why? Check out the graphic below and other resources on this page to find out!
