HCS: Parents can determine if they want to stick with OLA or return to in-person

Hardin County Schools is urging parents to fill out the second quarter survey for the district. This survey will serve to gauge the interest of those in the Online Learning Academy as to whether or not they will stay there, or if they are interested in returning to in-person instruction.

District spokesperson John Wright

The survey is available on the Hardin County Schools website.

Way to Work – Community Resource & Job Fair

Community Resource & Job Fair on October 1st at the American Legion Post #113 on Ring Road in Elizabethtown from 10am – 2pm.
WAY TO WORK – A partnership between Goodwill Industries of Kentucky and United Way of Central Kentucky, Way to Work provides a network of services to break down barriers that interfere with long-term success. We address the multiple concerns and needs of our participants — who we call “members” — helping them overcome barriers that keep them from finding long-term employment and financial self-sufficiency. Unlike a placement agency or temporary service, Way to Work is committed to helping its members achieve full-time employment with benefits, find stability and improve their lives. With all Way to Work services offered at no cost, members can expect to receive:
• One-on-one employment coaching
• Educational resources
• Job-readiness training
• Financial literacy and budgeting services
• Barrier removal resources and referrals
• Legal advocacy
