Rooted in Excellence • Growing Our Future

Building Community • Celebrating Students • Supporting Staff • Strengthening Our School

BACK-TO-SCHOOL SPLASH

We kicked off the school year with our Back-to-School Splash, bringing students and families together to celebrate a new year and build excitement for the year ahead.

ROOTED IN EXCELLENCE

PTSA brought our theme, “Rooted in Excellence, Growing Our Future,” to life by decorating Second Street School and creating a welcoming, positive environment for students and staff as they began the new school year.

CELEBRATING CHARACTER

We are partnering with our guidance counselor to support the Character Strong curriculum and recognize students who demonstrate strong character through kindness, responsibility, perseverance, leadership, and positive choices.

SUPPORTING OUR STAFF

We showed our teachers and staff how much they are appreciated by providing a special meal from Thai Smile. It's one small way we can thank the people who work every day to support and inspire our students.

OUR GOAL

When our students, staff, families, and community grow together, our entire school grows stronger.

2025 - 2026

During the 2025–2026 school year, the Second Street School PTSA proudly supported students, staff, and families through a variety of programs, events, and community partnerships. We partnered with the school's Character Strong initiative by providing custom recognition keychains for students who demonstrated monthly character traits, purchased a laminator to support classroom instruction, and funded a commercial refrigerator for the FoodPrints classroom and a commercial fan for the gymnasium. We welcomed nearly 400 students and family members to our Back-to-School Pool Party, creating a fun and positive start to the school year. Through our successful Copy That! Paper Drive, we raised enough funds to purchase three pallets of copy paper—providing nearly a year's supply for our teachers and classrooms. We sponsored the Fall Door Decorating Contest, partnered with the BETA Club for Trunk or Treat, and worked alongside Frankfort Lowe's Hometown Heroes to beautify our campus by enhancing the school's entrance and adding outdoor classroom and playground seating. During the holiday season, the PTSA transformed the school with festive hallway decorations, helped provide turkeys and hams to 100 Frankfort Independent Schools families, and offered students the opportunity to attend the Louisville Ballet's The Nutcracker through a schoolwide ticket lottery. Throughout the year, we also celebrated our outstanding staff with appreciation events and treats while continuing to invest in enriching educational experiences, including the Lexington Philharmonic Discovery Concert for fourth graders, the Kentucky Agriculture Mobile Science Center, middle school wellness programming, and a schoolwide Literacy Escape Room. These accomplishments reflect the PTSA's ongoing commitment to strengthening our school community and supporting every student's success.
