As we head into Christmas break, we want families to know that extra food resources are available for those who may need support.
If your family could use food assistance for Christmas break or upon returning to school in January, please message FRYSC in the school app , or send an email to carrie.coleman@williamstown.kyschools.us to make arrangements. All requests are handled confidentially.
Additionally, families in need may sign up for our Weekend Snack Pack program, which will begin again in January and continue throughout the remainder of the school year.
If you have questions or would like to sign up, simply reach out to the Family Resource Youth Service Center. We are here to support our students and families.

Santa’s Sidekick Shop Update ❄️🎅

Santa and his trusty sidekick tried to make it across the parking lot this morning… and let’s just say even they couldn’t handle the ice. After one too many almost–North-Pole-worthy slips, they agreed it’s best to postpone the Santa’s Sidekick Shop until next week!
We plan (pending Santa-approved weather) to offer extended shopping hours on Dec. 9 & 10 from 10am–6pm. As always, we’ll keep watching the forecast like elves on cocoa duty and will update you as soon as we can. We fully expect to add more days and times—because everyone deserves a chance to shop!
And don’t worry… Santa’s sleigh is still overflowing. We have even MORE items waiting to be put out because our school community is unbelievably generous.
Thanks for your patience, your safety, and your sense of humor. Stay warm, stay safe, and keep an eye out for updates—Santa and his sidekick are determined to get this shop open without ice skating their way there! ⛸️🎁✨

We will be monitoring the conditions so check back later today to see if we can open for the 4 to 6 PM time slot.
