Breckinridge County Schools Superintendent Dr. Nick Carter said the 2025-2026 school year was a year of progress at BCS.
“We’ve seen a lot of increases in our student achievement with some of our NWEA MAP assessments, and I’m just super proud of the work that’s taken place academically this year as we, you know, we’re continuing to get further out away from the pandemic and addressing the learning loss component from those years, and there’s just been amazing work taking place, so I’m really excited about that work and want to thank all of our teachers and staff that’ve had such a hand in that,” Carter said.
Carter says the progress can also be seen in the district’s facilities, most notably the start of work on the new Breckinridge County Middle School building.
“That was six years in the making, and so it’s exciting to see dirt being moved for that project and really thinking about what that campus is going to look like in August of 2028, but it’s just been an amazing year and truly one of the best in my career,” Carter said.
Carter says the goal in the 2026-2027 school year is to maintain the progress and keep the district moving forward.
“Obviously in every school district, you welcome back current staff and you welcome new staff into your district, and so I’m always looking forward to welcoming our new staff into the district and getting to know them and really just making them feel welcome in our Tiger Nation family,” Carter said.
