The success of the Elizabethtown High School and T.K. Stone Middle School delegations at the Kentucky YMCA's annual Kentucky Youth Assembly (KYA) is no mystery. Their achievements stem from a combination of rigorous preparation, a supportive school culture, and a commitment to fostering leadership skills among their students.

Every morning, third-grade teacher Allie Yates steps into her classroom at Helmwood Heights Elementary School, ready to greet her students with a smile. To them, she is more than just their teacher; she is a guide, cheerleader, and a source of comfort. With her gentle demeanor and steadfast dedication, Yates transforms her classroom into a safe space where learning feels like an adventure.

The word, “amazing,” perfectly encapsulated Elizabethtown High School’s remarkable performance in the Altec Innovation Challenge at Elizabethtown Community & Technical College on Thursday. 

At T.K. Stone Middle School in Elizabethtown, Jennifer Weaver is more than just a teacher. With more than two decades of experience, Weaver has become a cornerstone of the school, making a lasting impact on her students both academically and personally. Through her innovative approach to education, she sparks curiosity, fosters creativity, and helps her students develop the skills they need to succeed in an ever-changing world.
