LaRue County Learner Profile

Over a year ago, community stakeholders and LaRue County Schools staff partnered together to begin gathering feedback from the community, ultimately taking the form of a question: what skills/capabilities do graduates from LCHS need to have and how can we be sure they have them?

What began as many meetings over many months with many questions, began to take shape. The final product, approved at the August 2023 LC BOE meeting, is the result of all that work and gathered feedback from the community.

LaRue County as a community desires graduates from LaRue County Schools to be collaborative communicators, resilient problem solvers, responsible individuals, life-long learners, and engaged citizens. Each of these five identified competencies has multiple sub-points that help to define what these look like, for instance: Resilient Problem Solver - Generates ideas and takes risks to develop creative solutions.
