The semester is off to a good start at Elizabethtown Community and Technical College.
“We are excited to kick off the Fall 2023 semester at Elizabethtown Community and Technical College, and our welcome activities have been a blast this week,” says ECTC Chief Student Officer Dr. Corina Langford. “We are having a ‘Wild Week’ which is a week where all of the students can come collaborate, learn about our resources, and kind of create that sense of belonging and community at Elizabethtown Community and Technical College.”
The Kentucky Community and Technical College System says enrollment is up statewide about 5.8 percent, with 78,245 students attending the system’s 16 campuses. Langford says enrollment is also up a bit at ECTC.
“Enrollment at Elizabethtown Community and Technical College has thrived,” Langford said. “Last Friday, we counted around 4,700 students, which is a 3.7 percent increase compared to last year. How amazing is that? Now remember: the start of the semester can cause enrollment to change, plus we are still enrolling students for the second half term.”
ECTC offers several programs to support students, and one of the college’s partners is looking for volunteers.
Family Scholar House is in need of volunteers with a variety of skills and interests for several opportunities including stocking and managing the student food pantry, writing notes of encouragement, staffing activities such as Pop-In and Mystery Day, and other projects.
If you are interested in volunteering, contact Mary Jo King at maryjo.king@kctcs.edu or call 270-706-8835.

My grandson attended HCS. Overall I have nothing but praise and that included lunch. Although I wish they’d go back to freshly prepared meals.. that said: come on parents fill out the form. It’s such a small thing to do and your child will do much better in his afternoon classes.
