GC PARENTS AND FAMILIES: Garrard County Schools Online Registration is now open! The Online Registration process, completed through Parent Portal, will allow you fill out the necessary back-to-school paperwork online. Online Registration does not replace our Back-to-School Nights, but will greatly reduce the amount of paperwork needed to be completed on those nights. There will be detailed directions posted on our page to help you with the process. There will be separate directions for parent/families of existing GC students and new-to-the-district students. Parents of existing GC students will need access to your Parent Portal account to complete this online registration process. If you have any questions, please contact your school.
PARENTS AND GUARDIANS: Don't forget to activate your parent portal accounts! Parents/Guardians will need an active parent portal account starting July 1st, 2022 to register students for the upcoming school year- this will help replace the numerous hard copies parents/guardians fill out on back to school nights. If you do not have an active parent portal account, please visit your student’s school to set up your account. Your school will provide your user specific activation key. If you have multiple students in the district- setting up your account at one school will include all of your students. You will need to bring a valid ID to set up your account. You will not be able to register your student(s) for the next school year without creating this account. If you have any questions regarding your Parent Portal account, please contact your school.
Don't forget! Garrard County School District is participating in the Summer Food Service Program again this summer! Visit our GCHS Cafeteria as the meal site.
Ages 18 and under can eat breakfast and lunch at no cost!
*No grab n go, or curbside pick up available this year.*

There has been some confusion over the yearbook sales at LES. Our yearbooks are now $25 dollars. The price changed after April 1st. Our yearbooks are hardback and are a little more than the other schools, but they are wonderfully put together by our students !!! We still have plenty of this year's yearbooks for purchase, along with yearbooks from the past two school years ! If you wish to purchase this year's yearbook it is $25, if you wish to purchase any of the other years (2019-2020 and 2020-2021) it is $5 a book!
