TRANSCRIPT
A Salt Lick man was re-cently arrested on drug trafficking and possession charges.
John A. Patterson, 35, was arrested on Saturday, June 13, near Salt Lick, by Bath County Deputy Sheriff Tay-lor Davidson.
According to the criminal warrant penned by David-son and dated April 28, Pat-terson trafficked in a con-trolled substance by selling “meth and heroin” to Jimmy Dixon on April 21, 2020.
Deputy Davidson execut-ed a search warrant at Pat-terson’s home on Bait Shop Road in Midland on the same day and discovered pills with no markings in
a bag, methamphetamine, and small zip lock bags con-taining a crystal-like sub-stance, and needles, bongs, and two scales.
Davidson arrested Pat-terson on the warrant on Saturday, June 13, and charged him with one count of first degree trafficking in a controlled substance (less
than 2 grams of metham-phetamine), two counts of possession of a controlled substance, and one count of possession of drug para-phernalia.
He was lodged in the Rowan County Detention Center under $10,000 cash bond.
No court date in Bath County has yet been sched-uled on his charges.
According to Kentucky Department of Correc-tions records, Patterson is currently on probation on a burglary and persistent felony offender charge out of Rowan County from 2017.
A probation revocation hearing is scheduled in that case for July 21.
All individuals are consid-ered innocent until proven guilty or pleading guilty in court.

Students are tentatively scheduled to return to school in Bath County on Monday, August 10, fol-lowing Board of Education approval of the 2020-21 school calendar on Mon-day evening during a vid-eoconference meeting that was livestreamed on the district website.
Board members got a glimpse of the changes that will take place when students return to school at that time.
Supt. Harvey Tackett said that the school calen-dar has not yet been ap-proved by the state, and much might still happen with the coronavirus pan-demic in July which may alter that calendar.
He said that start date can be amended next month if
conditions change. Members of the school
district’s Reentry Task Force have been hard at work developing a plan for a return to school based on a massive number of Ken-tucky Department of Edu-cation guidelines to keep students and staff safe dur-ing the pandemic.
Beginning next month,
Tackett said, parents can enroll students in one of two options: an in-person 5 day or hybrid plan, or an online plan.
The 5 day in-person plan would have students return to classes at school five day a week, if their happen

Bath County Superin-tendent of Schools Har-vey Tackett issued the following plan on Tues-day for the reopening of schools. It was sent to all parents/guardians, staff, and school district stake-holders to keep them up-dated on the most recent efforts undertaken to get the district back to class-es this fall.
“This is an initial plan; we will know more over the following weeks when we specifically find out from parents regarding on-line reentry in-person reentry; and this initial plan may change due to the additional informa-tion we receive,” Tackett said.
Bath County Schools Steps to reopen
What we know now based on current guid-ance
* School will start on August 10, 2020
* The safety of all staff, students and student’s families, guide our plan-ning process
* Students will choose between a hybrid setting or a teacher-supported online setting
* On a hybrid sched-ule, students will be as-signed to attend two days per week on a con-sistent schedule (i.e. Monday and Wednesday while others will attend Tuesday and Thursday OR Monday and Tues-day while others attend
Thursday and Friday). On the days that students are not in attendance they will work remotely (via technology) on teacher-driven instruction
* Starting sometime in July parents will do on-line registration for stu-dents and choose either a hybrid setting or fully online setting
* We need the coop-eration of students, staff, parents, and community to make it happen
* Facemasks and tem-perature checks will be part of our everyday school operation
* Facemasks will be re-quired on buses
* COVID-19 will still exist in our community
* There may be times that we have intermittent school closure
* Updated guidance will be communicated on our District website, Dis-trict Facebook page, and District OneCall system
What we do not know* Future changes in
regulations and state guidance
* Which students will attend which assigned days in the hybrid sched-ule
* How social distancing will limit school opera-tions
* What testing and cleaning protocols will be required
* What impact the pan-demic will have in future months
School district issues plan for reopening
in August
Bath County High School’s Class of 2020 will finally get to have an in-per-son graduation ceremony on Friday, July 17, at 7:30
p.m. at the high school’s athletic complex.
The COVID-19 coronavi-rus pandemic led school’s to end in-person classes on March 16 across the state and led to an early end to the school year last month.
State restrictions on pub-lic events and public facili-ties forced many seniors
across the state to find alternative ways of hold-ing their graduation cer-emonies, including virtual walks across the stage and drive-thru graduations.

Following the loosening of coronavirus restrictions in public across the state last month, areas around the state have seen a rise in the number of cases.
Gateway District Health Director Greg Brewer said in an email on Tuesday, “There has been an uptick but we feel it is due to in-creased testing, especially asymptomatic testing.”
Brewer noted that the Gateway District, which includes Bath, Menifee, Morgan, Rowan, and El-liott Counties, has, since the public health state of emergency was declared on March 6, has seen 1 death, and there are two patients in the district cur-rently hospitalized. The rest of the current cases are isolating at home or are asymptomatic.
He also noted that while positive cases have been found in nursing homes in the Gateway District (1 in Rowan, 1 in Menifee, and 2 in Bath), all have been as-ymptomatic as well.
Since the state began collecting the number of positive cases in March, there have been a total of 11 cases in Bath County; 3 in Elliott; 11 in Menifee; 8 in Morgan; and 21 in Row-an County.
The number of cases has risen in surrounding coun-ties, including Montgom-ery County. The Mont-gomery County Health Department announced on Sunday that it has its 50th case in the county, with 23 currently active cases.
Free coronavirus test-ing remains available at St. Claire Medical Center in Morehead. Extended test-ing hours are on Wednes-

A small gathering took place at the Owingsville Cemetery last Saturday af-ternoon to dedicate a new flagpole at the grave of Sgt. Phillip David McNeill.
The existing pole was blown down twice dur-ing high winds earlier this year, and Task Force Omega director Danny “Greasy” Belcher and oth-ers donated a new pole to
replace it. Sgt. McNeill was killed
in action on January 20, 2007, in Anbar Province in Iraq when a roadside bomb exploded by his Hummer while he and oth-ers were on night patrol. Three other soldiers were also killed in the blast.
He was laid to rest in the Owingsville Cemetery on a cold Sunday, January 28, 2007 following a com-munity funeral service in downtown Owingsville.
McNeill served a medic in the US Army and was on his second tour in Iraq
when he was killed. He was a recipient of the
Bronze Star and Purple Heart.
Rev. Lowell Rice began Saturday’s dedication cer-emony with prayer, noting that the flag will “serve as a perpetual memorial for McNeill and for the cause of freedom.”
Owingsville Mayor Gary Hunt led the Pledge of Al-legiance and spoke at the ceremony. He said that Sgt. McNeill “had a life-long desire to serve his country” and “he wanted to fight not only for the people back home but also for the people Iraq.”
Hunt said McNeill was a young man when he en-
listed in the U.S. Army in 2003, but when he reenlist-ed in 2007, “He knew what he was doing.”
“He paid the ultimate price for defending the principals of Old Glory,” he said.
Greasy Belcher thanked everyone in attendance at the ceremony and noted that Task Force Omega and Steve Butcher donated the flag pole and that cem-etery caretaker Clint Mar-tin took care of the new pole’s concrete base.
Pam McNeill Bates, Phil-lip’s aunt, said, “On behalf of the family, thank you all so much for coming out. It is an honor that Danny has put this together.”
McNeill’s mother, Ange-la Fiely, also shared her ap-preciation for the new flag pole and said, “I think this is a turning point for me. I’ve been stuck in sadness, but I feel like can move for-ward now.”
McNeill’s tombstone is located next his grand-
father’s, Lt. Col. Jesse McNeill, who was retired from the US Air Force and who had served in World War II and Korea and had won numerous commen-dations for his service. Lt. Col. McNeill passed away in 2001.

The Message We Shared
race relations (1)
Now you are thinking I am getting political. No, but I will scold the church-es for failure to practice biblical race relations. The Word of God has the an-swer to race relations and Jesus led the way.
In Jesus’ day there were three major races: the Jews, the Samaritans, and the Gentiles (also called the Greeks or the uncircumcised). “The Jews have no dealings with the Samaritans” (John 4:9); and “It (was) unlawful for a Jewish man to keep
company with or go to one of another nation” (Acts 10:28). In the first century race relations were just as bad as they are today, but Jesus led the way to a bet-ter relationship between the races.
Jesus started to heal race relations by speaking to the Samaritan woman in John chapter four. She brought up the division by reminding Jesus that the Jews and the Samari-tans refused to deal with each other. She was ready for a hot debate and she expected a heated, angry, loud, name calling reac-
tion from Jesus. Instead, Jesus calmly spoke to her about spiritual matters. He led her to look deeply into her own life and brought her face to face with her own sin (John 4:16-19, 29). They talked about worship offered to God and she learned that the attitude of heart is more important than the place of worship; true worship is “in spirit and in truth” (John 4:20-24). Finally, they talked about the promised Mes-siah that both the Jews and the Samaritans were waiting for and Jesus said to her, “I am He” (John
4:25, 26). Then, something strange happened: the woman went into the city and told them what had happened. And they, this city of Samaritans came out to see Jesus, the Jew (John 4:29, 39-42). These Samaritans, who have no dealings with the Jews, invited Jesus, the Jew, to spend “stay with them” and He did!

Thank you for reason-ing with me.

Jeremiah 20:7-10 is a dif-ficult passage. It begins with Jeremiah declaring that God had “deceived” him, and throughout, it is filled with frustration at the opposition Jeremiah en-counters as he does what is right. Along the way, though, there are meaning-ful and relevant insights for the authentic believer.
Jeremiah’s declaration that God had “deceived”
him was the prophet’s way of expressing how God’s call had captured him. Though God had drawn him, Jeremiah had also willingly embraced the call.
Once captured, Jeremiah was compelled to speak. Things that were filled with violence and destruc-tion could not be ignored. The prophet had to cry out.
Not only did Jeremiah speak out against the wrong, he was also com-pelled to declare God’s name. God’s message was like a fire in his heart, a
fire shut up in his bones, he could not hold it in.
For the true believer today, there is also an ex-perience where the truth is overwhelming. Once a believer has grasped the beauty of God’s eternal plan, it is difficult to ne-glect, ignore or postpone.
That truth is so impor-tant that the believer can not hold it in. Healing is sought for the broken, peace for the oppressed, and love for the forgotten and neglected.
The name of Christ who
gives healing, peace and forgiveness cannot be held in by the believer. There is an anxious desire to find and make opportunities to share it. Witnessing be-comes a passion and a pur-pose.
Where do you find yourself? Have you been captured by the truth of Christ? Are you moved by a desire to declare hope for those who are hurting? Are you passionately driven to share the name of the Sav-ior who brought ultimate meaning and hope to you?

A Tribute to Betty Allen – Ms. Betty
By Her Husband, James Allen
How do I describe a
person like Betty Jo Al-len, or Ms. Betty as she was lovingly called by so many? There is no doubt that Jesus was first in her life. This was evidenced by her love and devotion to Him and to His work. To say that she was a wonderful wife, mother, and grandmother are not adequate words to de-scribe her.
Across 60 years of min-istry she has served in many capacities. She was my partner in Prayer, in the ministry, she was always by my side help-ing me in every way that she could. She served as Minister of Music, a Sun-day School teacher, and Director of Christian Edu-cation. She was the Youth Director, church secre-tary, Children’s Church leader and Vacation Bible School Director. She or-ganized the Senior Adult Ministries and promoted our churches in countless ways. She wrote a week-ly newspaper article in the county and area news-papers. The list could go on and on. She did not fill all of these capacities at once, but did whatever was needed at the time.
To say that she will be missed is the understate-ment of the year.
One more thing she always did for me was to proofread all my printed articles and make sugges-
tions that helped. If she was doing that for this article today, I can hear her saying, “James don’t say that about me, say more about Jesus.” I do, with her, give Jesus all the
credit. Since she is not here this article goes to press without her special touch, however I know she would want me to say, “God bless all the readers of this article.”
OVER THE HILLLIFE CAN BE FUNNYBy Kathleen Perry A couple of months
ago, after cooking some cabbage and stinking up the whole house, I propped the kitchen storm door open in an effort to air the place out a little. I love cooked cabbage but I don’t like smelling it for hours on end once the cabbage is gone!
In about ten or fif-teen minutes I heard this strange flip-flop noise com-ing from the living room which joins the kitchen. To my utter surprise I found a bird in the living room, try-ing its’ best to not get hit
by the ceiling fan! I chased it with a broom as it lit on everything in both rooms, always managing to stay just out of my reach.
Finally, after the bird knocked down every dust tag in the house, I gave up and called my son, Greg for some help. In a few minutes he arrived and I waited on the porch as he checked it out. In practically no time at all, Greg came out the door with bird-in-hand! When the bird had darted behind a curtain, it was caught and the chase was over!
To make a long story short……the bird was re-leased and the storm door
was shut…. never to be propped open again!
But, as we know, the best laid plans of mice and men sometimes do not work! And one day last week, for some unknown reason, I propped that door open again! A few minutes later, with no warning, I heard that familiar flappity-flop noise that was the un-mistakable sound of bird-wings-in-the-kitchen!
As it flew round and round the ceiling light in the kitchen, I gave myself a talking! I said, “Self! You are going to take care of this yourself! And you’re not going to fool with this
“catch and release stuff again!”
Looking for a spray can of “anything”, I ran to the bathroom and grabbed the can of hairspray. Then the broom.
I think Mr. Bird, no-ticing the glint in my eyes, took the hint and decided that now would be the right time to leave my kitchen!
My memory gets a lit-tle blurry here, but I think I heard someone calling him everything but a milk cow as he flew off at break-neck speed, never once even looking back!
I think he got the message.

Mortgage Applications Made Easy!You can now apply online for a mortgage from the convenience of your home or on your phone.
Back in 2013 I managed a nearly 9 mile hike along the Sheltowee Trace Trail from Clear Creek into Me-nifee County and back.
It was summer, and hot and humid, and there hap-pened to be a good num-ber of horseback riders out that day, who would pass me and then stop and let me pass them and then go by me again.
A number of them were pretty intoxicated and loud, and after several hours of this it became annoying.
At some point in my hike, I ran out of water before I reached my point to turn around at a beautiful cedar-filled ridge somewhere near Johnson Branch Road outside of Frenchburg.
I wasn’t going to be any less thirsty if I took my time, so I pulled myself off the lock ledge and made my way back. I had to pass the horseback riders again as they pushed their hors-es up a narrow ledge trail on a hillside, which didn’t seem very enjoyable for the horses.
I was glad to free of them and heading back to some water at home.
One of my main reasons for enjoying time in the woods is that it helps me to relax to get away from the constant gaze of society.
Since I was a child, I’ve always felt like I can be more of myself otherwise along amidst nature.
As I’ve gotten older I’ve thought about what it would be like to “bring some of that back with me” to my life amongst others.
I’ve never been a very materialistic person, but the pressure to join the rat race I see around me has always been strong.
One of my deepest de-sires has always been to not experience any loss of comfort as I transition from civilized life to the
woods and back. Whether I have a gabled roof over my head, or whether I have to fashion one from sticks and cordage made from plant fiber, it’s always fas-cinated me to not be both-ered – or impressed – by either one.
I feel my very soul settle and fall into a deep con-tentment amidst the trees and squirrels and deer and coyote. What would it mean to bring that content-ment back to my home, my work?
What would life look like if I was able to do that?
I once sat down under a big oak tree at the edge of the woods and dozed off. I dreamed of watching a gi-ant herd of deer walk up to
me, silently watching me, as I slowly drifted down-ward into the leaves and hummus under me. I was dissolving into the forest, becoming a part of it.
These days, I feel busy and far away from the woods, even though they are right behind my house, or within walking distance of most places I go.
Maybe the further away a person gets from his or her soul place, maybe the more it will gently tug back, reminding them of what is important.
What would life look like if we were able to respond to that?

The Rowan County war ParT III: The realIty of war and The IllusIon of Peace
Christmas of 1884 was quiet in Rowan County, as was the New Year, but as January drew to a close trouble began anew.
On January 30, 1885, Colonel Warren Anderson, a somewhat wealthy More-head merchant and ally of the Tolliver faction, awoke near midnight to the sound of his back door being bashed in with axes, by a group of masked men who held him at gunpoint and stole $400 from his safe.
Allen Sutton, a close friend of John Martin, was among them and saw to it that Anderson received a knot on his head from his pistol before the group left.
On the other side of the fray, John Martin’s father, Ben Martin, and John’s
brother, Will, received death warnings and left for Kansas on the next train. John’s widow, Lucy was likely with them as was her son.
John’s sister, Sue Martin, remained at home as she was falling more in love with Rowan Sheriff, Cook Humphrey, and the two become leaders among the Martin-Democratic faction as the Tolliver-Republican faction continued to con-trol most of Farmers, and several parts of Morehead.
On February 23, 1885 Farmer’s Town Marshall, Alvin Bowling, who was married with children, boarded the train to Mt. Sterling, where he and 19-year-old Mattie Scott continued on to Olive Hill, where they spent the night, returning the next day to Mt. Sterling.
On the train from Olive Hill, to Mt. Sterling, Bowl-ing encountered his close friend and Morehead mer-chant, Tom Boyd, and the two began drinking whis-key. By the time Bowling and Scott checked into the Turner Hotel in Mt. Sterling, Bowling was in-toxicated. So much so that there were reports that he
walked the streets of Mt. Sterling, boasting of being one of the men who killed John Martin.
While this was occur-ring, Boyd got into a tan-gle with Mt. Sterling law-men: Deputy Sheriffs J.D. Wyatt and John Gill, who were escorting him to jail when Bowling intervened, leveling his pistols at the two and forcibly removing Boyd from their custody.
He, Boyd and Scott, then attempted to board the train, but Bowling was grabbed by Gill and others. Bowling spun around and began blasting, with his bullets striking Gill twice, and one striking Howard Wilson’s hand, before Dep-uty Wyatt got the drop on him.
Bowling surrendered, Boyd was not charged as he was unarmed.
Gill died the next day, leaving a wife and four chil-dren.
Bowling sobered up the next day and decided his best defense was insanity. He was thus, by his own hand, removed from the Rowan conflict.
On March 7, Rowan County Attorney Z. T. Young, made his way by
horseback to Elliotville where he had attorney-cli-ent business and upon his return, as he neared the Martin Home, which stood at the confluence of East Triplett Creek and Christy Creek, he was shot at close range by an assassin hid-ing in the woods. The bul-let entered his right shoul-der and exited through his right breast. He survived but was severely wounded.
The Martin faction be-lieved Young was as guilty as anyone for the assassi-nation of John martin and thus Ben Rayburn was put to the task of killing Mar-tin and he would have suc-ceeded but as his finger squeezed the trigger that day a gust of wind sent a shower of snow into his eyes.
Rayburn and Sheriff Humphrey were very close friends as was one of Hum-phrey’s deputies, Steward Bumgartner. Bumgart-ner’s brother had married a sister of Humphrey’s.
Around March 15, Bumgartner’s bullet-rid-dled body was discovered at almost the same location as Young had been shot.
Panic gripped the citi-zens of Morehead and
armed gangs roved around the different strongholds of either the Tolliver or Martin faction.
Cook Humphrey recruit-ed Ed Pearce.
Pearce was alleged to have killed six individuals and was currently under indictment for robbing Joe Haggerman’s Store in Bath County.
On March 31, 1885, Daw-son Masterson Dillon was appointed deputy sheriff by Cook Humphrey. The next day, Humphrey and Pearce were in Morehead, looking for a fight. When they found former sheriff John Day and Alvin Bowl-ing’s brother, Jeff, playing pool inside the Central Ho-tel, they all drew their pis-tols simultaneously.
No shots were immedi-ately fired as the four men separated, but soon after a running gun battle across the streets of Morehead erupted and a general fir-ing lasted until the next day.
The men fired from bar-ricaded positions and the only casualties were two dogs.
Humphrey and Pearce faded into the woods and the Tolliver faction took
complete possession of Morehead, and Farmer’s, with Craig Tolliver acting as leader.
County officials left in mass, with Judge James Carey walking out of More-head for 12 miles that night before catching a ride on a wagon to Flemingsburg.
Several influential citi-zens and elected officials loosely allied with either side visited Governor James Proctor Knott, seek-ing state militia’s aid and/ or some sort of treaty to help end the conflict.
Peace was declared on April 4, 1885 by both sides, the leaders of whom signed a formal peace trea-ty on April 11, 1885, the same day, by mutual agree-ment, that Craig Tolliver was appointed Town Mar-shall of Morehead. Around this time Allen Sutton was arrested for the Anderson robbery.
An unsteady peace blan-keted Rowan County for several weeks, but the peace was a mere illusion and violence would soon grip the landscape once more.
To be continued.

A popular local monthly art and craft vendor mar-ket is still on hold due to the coronavirus.
The Morehead Mar-ket (previously known as the First Friday Market), which is held at the Rowan County Arts Center on the first Friday evening of each month during the spring, summer, and early fall, has
been put off this year fol-lowing the announcement of coronavirus restrictions in March.
The market, which be-gan in 2015, is held April through October.
A message was posted on their Facebook page on Tuesday morning: “More-head Market is postponed at this time. Please con-tinue to watch this page for future dates. We apologize but the safety of our staff, vendors and patrons is of the utmost importance.”
Morehead Market remains postponed

A nation-wide retail chain with several regional locations reopened last week while its parent company continues with bankruptcy filings.
Gordmans’ website an-nounced last Monday that all of its store locations have re-opened after being closed for two and a half months due to the coronavirus pandemic.
At the same time the loca-tions have announced store closing sales.
The Morehead Gordman’s location (formerly Goody’s) in the Kroger Plaza held its
grand opening on March 3 but was closed by March 26 due to coronavirus restric-tions.
The same happened with other locations across the re-gion, including in Mt. Sterling and Winchester.
The parent company, Stage Stores, which also owned Goody’s, Peebles, Bealls, Palais Royal, and Stage, an-nounced it was filing for Chap-ter 11 bankruptcy on May 10.
“Like many others, our business was significantly impacted by COVID-19. We temporarily closed all of our stores as we have worked to manage through this chal-lenging environment. Despite all of our efforts, we have been unable to obtain necessary fi-
nancing to continue operating as an independent business,” President and CEO Michael Glazer said in a May 10 press release. “We have therefore filed voluntary petitions un-der Chapter 11, as we simul-taneously run a sale process for our business or any of our assets and initiate an orderly wind-down of our operations. We hope our actions over the last several months to reposi-tion the business will attract the right partner who is inter-ested in our off-price concept. If we receive a viable bid for the business, we will termi-nate our winddown of opera-tions at certain locations.”
Stage Stores purchased the Gordman’s chain in 2017 and had planned on transitioning
all of its department stores to the Gordman’s name by late 2020.
The company showed strong economic growth throughout 2018 and 2019 but took a hit with less-than-expected holiday sales this past Christmas, followed by problems with paying back its asset-based loan by February, according to the website Re-tailDive.com
State and local restrictions due to the COVID-19 pan-demic forced the retailer to shut down all 540 of its stores in March, further financially crippling the company.
Gordmans remains open Monday through Saturday, 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. and Sundays 12 to 5 p.m.
Morehead Gordmans remains open despite parent company bankruptcy filingBy Cecil lawson
Morehead State Univer-sity President Jay Morgan issued a public statement on Tuesdsay afternoon in the wake of an incident in-volving an email sent from a coaching volunteer to a prospective athlete which contained racially-insensi-tive content.
Cincinnati television station WCPO reported on Monday that Winton Woods High School grad-uate Makayla Adams was considering attending Morehead State Univer-sity in the fall because of their national champion-ship-winning women’s bowling team.
Adams, who is African-American, had distin-guished herself at Winton Woods on their bowling team and was looking for-ward to pursing the sport
at college, according to the news segment, includ-ing a scholarship from Morehead State.
The news story said she and her mother, Danielle Watson, received a chain email from a volunteer with the bowling team, who was identified as a former coach.
The chain email con-tained “Do Black Lives Matter?” in the subject line, and the email con-tained the text of an arti-cle identified in a Google search as penned by con-servative writer L. Todd Wood in 2017 which criti-cized the African-Ameri-can community for creat-ing their own problems.
Both Makayla and her mother contacted More-head State University but received no response, according to the WCPO news story.
WCPO reached out to the MSU, and MSU Presi-dent Jay Morgan issued
the following statement on its Facebook page on Tuesday afternoon.
Dear University Com-munity:
On Monday, June 22, at approximately noon, the University received an inquiry from a Cincinnati news outlet regarding an email that a prospective student received from a volunteer with our bowl-ing team. The reporter shared that the student found the email to be racially insensitive and wanted to know what dis-ciplinary steps the Uni-versity planned to take against the volunteer.
First, and most impor-tantly, we are sincerely apologetic to this student and her family for the inappropriate email that she received from the volunteer and we have contacted the student. The context of the email she received is in direct
opposition to the core values of our University and we take seriously all reports of actions con-trary to those values. Ad-ditionally, the student and her mother expressed concern regarding non-response to their emails to the University alerting us to this incident. The ac-counts that were emailed are unfortunately gen-eral accounts, monitored periodically, and due to vacation schedules there was a lag in response last week. We have changed our process and these general accounts will now be monitored daily.
As a response to this incident, we have taken the following immediate steps:
The volunteer has been informed verbally and in writing that he must im-mediately cease volun-teer involvement with the bowling team.
The Vice President of
Student Affairs notified the bowling team coach and members of this di-rective.
The University bowling team has been directed to remove a third party host-ed website that the team used and to create a new Univers i ty -moni tor ed website where the volun-teer’s name has been re-moved.
I, as University Presi-dent, will work with our staff to remove this vol-unteer’s name from the bowling alley and will make a formal recom-mendation to our Board of Regents.
We want to ensure our incoming students, exist-ing students, faculty and staff, particularly those who represent diverse and racially minoritized communities, that we care about you. More-head State University con-demns racism, injustice, and violence and strives
to maintain a campus at-mosphere where all stu-dents and employees are free from such. As an in-stitution of higher learn-ing engaged in preparing the next generation of leaders, MSU has an ob-ligation to model inclusiv-ity and embrace diversity.
On behalf of MSU, we apologize for this unfortu-nate incident.
Jay MorganMorehead State Univer-
sityPresident
The news story noted that Makayla had not yet made up her mind whether to attend MSU but would decide in a few days.
The individual men-tioned as sending the email was not identified in either the WCPO news story or by MSU officials.

The Cave Run Story-telling Festival is a long-standing tradition for many people and, every year, we look forward to connecting and reconnecting not only with our nationally known storytellers but our festival attendees. Knowing the importance of the festival to so many of you, it is with a heavy heart that we an-nounce that the festival committee has made the very difficult decision to cancel the 2020 Cave Run Storytelling Festival.
This is not a decision that the CRSF Committee has taken lightly, but the overriding concerns and commitment we individu-ally and collectively feel for
the safety of our perform-ers, attendees, volunteers, vendors and each other has led us to the conclu-sion that the festival cannot be held this year due to the uncertainty of the situation in the global pandemic. Please know that if you have already prepaid for tickets, we will be reaching out to you to accommodate a refund.
As we share this deci-sion with you, we want to reassure you that we re-main committed to the fes-tival and its continuation, and even as we progress through this time of un-certainty and difficulty, we carry with us hope and ex-citement for the future. In
that spirit, we are thrilled to announce that every sin-gle storyteller who would have been at the 2020 fes-tival has agreed to carry over their commitment to the 2021 festival, with one addition. The list of tell-ers will be: Sheila Arnold, Geraldine Buckley, Don-ald Davis, Bill Harley, Bil Lepp, Antonio Rocha, Paul Strickland, and Don White.
We know you will agree that our tellers are the heartbeat of our festival and as we wait for Septem-ber of 2021, we want to encourage you to support them in the meantime. There are two main ways you can do this:
1. The CRSF Com-
mittee is hosting a dona-tion drive to benefit the tellers in place of this year’s festival. We want to invite the CRSF community to show your support of our group of dedicated tellers, many of whom have lost a large portion of their live-lihood during this global pandemic as many festivals have been forced to shut down. If you would like to participate, please visit our website at www.caverun-storyfest.org and use the DONATE button to give online through PayPal or
to print a mail-in donation form. We will be taking do-nations from May 29 – July 31, 2020. All proceeds will be divided among the 2020 tellers.
2. We hope you will take the time to visit the tellers’ social media plat-forms and their websites, as many have been adapt-ing and creating perfor-mances for their now on-line-based audience. Links to these sites can also be found on our website.
As a committee, we want to thank our storytelling
community for your con-tinuous support over the years. Our festival would not be the experience it is without each of you and the outstanding tellers. We truly hope this finds each of you safe and well. We will see you next fall when we return on September 24-25, 2021, bigger and bet-ter than ever!
Please contact us with any questions or concerns through our website and email.
Cave Run Storytelling festival Cancelled
Several graduates of Morehead State’s Social Work program have joined the workforce providing vital services for the Ken-tucky children and have earned a valuable certifica-tion.
The Public Child Welfare Certification Program (PC-WCP) was implemented by the Kentucky Cabinet for Health and Family Ser-vices and undergraduate social work programs to better serve the children and families in Kentucky. The goal of the program is to fill the ranks of child welfare workers with the most competent and well-
trained workers. They can provide high-quality ser-vices immediately follow-ing graduation. Students in the program receive full-tuition scholarships and stipends during the pursuit of their Bachelor of Social Work (BSW) degree. They also complete 500 hours of service learning and other training in the field of child welfare.
Immediately upon grad-uation they are employed a minimum of two years with the Cabinet for Health and Family Services in the field of child welfare. Many pre-vious graduates have gone on to devote their careers to child welfare and are
now in leadership roles. “The education, train-
ing and hands-on experi-ence that I received from the Public Child Welfare Certification Program was invaluable when I started my career with Child Pro-tection over 19 years ago,” said MSU alumna Anasta-sia Fannin (02), who now serves as a service region administrator associate with the Kentucky De-partment for Community Based Services.
“I am impressed with the dedication these graduates put into going above and beyond an already rigor-ous academic program to prepare for the complex
and evolving field of child welfare, and their heart-felt commitment to make a difference in the lives of families and children in the Commonwealth of Kentucky,” said Dr. Lynn Geurin, associate profes-sor of social work and PC-WCP coordinator.
PCWCP graduates from Morehead State for 2019-20 are: • Adrianna Black-
burn, Prestonsburg • Chandra Burnett,
Georgetown • AllisonColegrove,

Child Find for Children with Disabilities in Need of Special Education or 504 Services
2020-2021
Child FindThe Rowan School District keeps educational records in a secure location in each school and Board office.
The Rowan School District obtains written consent from a parent or eligible student (age 18 or who is attending a postsecond-ary institution), before disclosing personally identifiable information to an entity or individual not authorized to receive it under FERPA.
For students who have been determined eligible for Special Education, educational records will be destroyed at the request of the parents when they are no longer needed to provide educational programs or services. The Rowan School District may de-stroy the educational records of a child without parent request 5 years after they are no longer needed to provide educational programs or services. Parents are advised that data contained in the records may later be needed for Social Security benefits or other purposes. The Rowan School District may retain, for an indefinite period of time, a record of the student’s name, address, telephone number, grades, attendance records, classes attended, grade level completed, and year completed.
Children eligible for Special Education include those children with disabilities who have autism, deaf-blindness, developmen-tal delay, emotional-behavior disability, hearing impairment, mental disability, multiple disabilities, orthopedic impairment, other health impairment, specific learning disability, speech or language impairment, traumatic brain injury, or visual impair-ment and who because of such an impairment need Special Education services.
Children eligible for 504 services include those children in a public elementary and secondary education program who have a current physical or mental impairment that currently substantially limits some major life activity which causes the student’s ability to access the school environment or school activities to be substantially limited.
Children eligible for the State-Funded Preschool program include three- and four-year-old children identified with disabilities and four-year-old children who are at-risk, as defined by federal poverty levels up to 160%. Preschool children eligible for special education must have an Individual Education Plan (IEP) instead of a 504 plan to receive State-Funded Preschool program services.
The Rowan School District has an ongoing “Child Find” system, which is designed to locate, identify and evaluate any child residing in a home, facility, or residence within its geographical boundaries, age three (3) to twenty-one (21) years, who may have a disability and be in need of Special Education or 504 services. This includes children who are not in school; those who are in public, private, or home school; those who are highly mobile such as children who are migrant or homeless; and those who are advancing from grade to grade, who may need but are not receiving Special Education or 504 services.
The district’s “Child Find” system includes children with disabilities attending private or home schools within the school district boundaries that may need special education services.
The Rowan School District will make sure any child enrolled in its district who qualifies for Special Education or 504 services, regardless of how severe the disability, is provided appropriate Special Education or 504 services at no cost to the parents of the child.
Parents, relatives, public and private agency employees, and concerned citizens are urged to help the Rowan School District find any child who may have a disability and need Special Education or 504 services. The District needs to know the name and age, or date of birth of the child; the name, address, and phone number(s) of the parents or guardian; the possible dis-ability; and other information to determine if Special Education or 504 services are needed.
Letters and phone calls are some of the ways the Rowan School District collects the information needed. The information the school District collects will be used to contact the parents of the child and find out if the child needs to be evaluated or referred for Special Education or 504 services.
If you know of a child who lives within the boundaries of the Rowan School District, who may have a disability, and may need but is not receiving Special Education or 504 services, please call 606-784-8928 or send the information to:
Julie FanninDirector of Special Education & Section 504 Coordinator
Rowan County Schools415 West Sun Street

Julie FanninDirector of Special Education & Section 504 Coordinator
Rowan County Schools415 West Sun Street
Morehead, KY 40351606-784-8928
“Child Find” activities will continue throughout the school year. As part of these efforts the Rowan School District will use screening information, student records, and basic assessment information it collects on all children in the District to help locate those children who have a disability and need Special Education or 504 services. Any information the District collects through “Child Find” is maintained confidentially.
Written Policies and Procedures have been developed which describe the District’s requirements regarding the confidentiality of personally identifiable information and “Child Find” activities.

FERPA-Notice of Rights under the Family Education Rights and Privacy Act (09.14)2020-2021
The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) affords parents and “eligible students” (students over 18 years of age or who are attending a postsecondary institution) certain rights with respect to the student’s education records. They are:
(1) The right to inspect and review the student’s education records within 45 days of the day the District receives a request for access.
Parents or student who has reached age 18 should submit to the school principal/designee a written request that identifies the record(s) they wish to inspect. The principal will make arrangements for access and notify the parent or eligible student of the time and place where the records may be inspected.
(2) The right to request the amendment of the student’s education records that the parent or student who has reached age 18 believes are inaccurate, misleading, or in violation of the student’s privacy or other rights.
Parents or student who has reached age 18 may ask the District to amend a record that they believe is inaccurate, misleading or in violation of privacy or other rights. They should write the school principal, clearly identify the part of the record they want changed, and specify why it is inaccurate, misleading, or in violation of their privacy or other rights. If the District de-cides not to amend the record as requested by the parent or student who has reached age 18, the District will notify the parent or student who has reached age 18 of the decision and advise them of their right to a hearing regarding the request for amend-ment. Additional information regarding the hearing procedures will be provided to the parent or student who has reached age 18 when notified of the right to a hearing.
(3) The right to consent to disclosures of personally identifiable information contained in the student’s education records, except to the extent that FERPA authorizes disclosure without consent.
The district may disclose records to school officials with legitimate educational interests. A school official is a person employed by the District as an administrator, supervisor, instructor, or support staff member (including health or medical staff and law enforcement unit personnel); a person serving on the school Board; a person or company with whom the district has con-tracted to perform a special task (such as an attorney, auditor, medical consultant, or therapist); or a parent or student serving on an official committee, such as a disciplinary or grievance committee, or assisting another school official in performing his or her tasks. A school official has a legitimate educational interest if the official needs to review an education record in order to fulfill his or her professional responsibility.Upon request, the district shall disclose education records without consent to officials of another school district in which a student seeks or intends to enroll or to other entities authorized by law.
(4) The right to file a complaint with the U.S. Department of Education concerning alleged failures by the District to comply with the requirements of FERPA. The name and address of the office that administers FERPA is:
Family Policy Compliance Office U.S. Department of Education 600 Independence Avenue, SW Washington, DC 20202-4605
(5) The Superintendent or the Superintendent’s designee is authorized to release Board approved directory information.
Directory information is information contained in an educational record which would not generally be considered harmful or an invasion of privacy if disclosed. This information may be released without consent. This information shall include student names, addresses, telephone numbers, date and place of birth, major field of study, participation in officially recognized activi-ties and sports, weight and height of members of athletic teams, dates of attendance, degrees and awards received, and most recent educational institution attended by student.
Any eligible student, parent, or guardian who does not wish to have directory information released shall notify the Superin-tendent in writing within 30 calendar days after the Annual FERPA Notice has been distributed. The written request must specifically state what information may not be classified as “Directory Information.” The Rowan County School District keeps educational records in a secure location in each school and Board office.
The Rowan County School District obtains written consent from a parent or eligible student before disclosing personally identifiable information to an entity or individual not authorized to receive it under FERPA. Information shall be released to Armed Forces recruiters and institutions of higher education upon their request without consent.
(6) For students who have been determined eligible for Special Education, educational records will be destroyed at the request of the parent when they are no longer needed to provide educational programs of services.
The Rowan County School District may destroy the educational records of a child without a parent’s request five years after they are no longer needed to provide educational programs or services. Parents are advised that data contained in the records may later be needed for Social Security benefits or other purposes. The Rowan County School District may retain for an indefinite period of time, a record of the student’s name, address, telephone number, grades, attendance records, class attended, grade level completed, and year completed.

Students at Morehead State University and four other Kentucky universi-ties will not face any tuition hikes this fall under plans approved last Friday by the state Council on Post-secondary Education as part of a strategic effort to maintain college affordabil-ity during COVID-19.
Public campuses are on track for one of the smallest average increases in tuition in decades, although rates at three state universities remain pending. While the Council did not cap tuition for the 2020-21 academic year, CPE has strongly encouraged campuses to limit increases as students grapple with financial fall-out from the pandemic.
“Higher education is bracing for significant fi-nancial challenges over the next 18 months, yet cam-puses are taking every pos-sible step to keep tuition low and limit the impact on students and families,” said CPE President Aaron Thompson. “It’s clear that campuses are placing stu-dents first in all their deci-sions, and I want to com-mend their commitment to affordability in these tough times.”
Institutions that ab-stained from raising rates included Kentucky State University, Morehead State University, Murray State University, Northern Ken-tucky University and West-ern Kentucky University. The “no hikes” approach applies to resident and non-resident undergradu-ates and resident and non-
resident graduate students at these campuses.
KSU also received ap-proval to decrease tuition for non-resident under-graduate students by 37.6% – a $7,450 reduction – and Murray State has an-nounced plans to lower its rates for some non-resident students who enroll for the first time this summer or in the fall.
Budget officials from the five universities and CPE estimate that forgo-ing increases in tuition will contribute to rev-enue shortfalls in 2020-21, which could range from $2.4 million to $16 million depending on the cam-pus. Meanwhile, fixed and unavoidable costs are ex-pected to grow across the system.
The Council also ap-proved a plan today for the Kentucky Community and Technical College System to increase rates by $5 per credit hour for resident undergraduates and $10 per credit hour for non-residents. That will boost revenues by about $2.5 mil-lion; however, fixed costs at KCTCS are expected to increase by nearly $30 mil-lion next year.
The University of Ken-tucky, the University of Louisville and Eastern Kentucky University were still finalizing tuition pro-posals as of today’s Coun-cil meeting. The Council has authorized its Finance Committee to review and approve those proposals in July.
In other action, the
Council approved six new academic programs, in-cluding:• WesternKentucky

The Geneva Bible and the German Bible are two of the Bible’s that we're on display at the five-day His-tory School offered June 15-19 for teens at Slate Val-ley Christian Church.
The Geneva Bible is the translation the Pilgrims used on the Mayflower. An unusual feature of it is translators' notes left in margins.
Pastor Gregg Whitt said the morning classes
had been planned to run 10 days before the quarantine forced the teachers to de-cide whether any sessions could be held this year.
But, Kentucky be-gan to open, and distanc-ing measures had become habit. Disposable masks and gloves were available for every participant. Two students sat at tables de-signed for six. Disposable table cloths covered those tables. All snacks were in-dividually wrapped. Every student had all new books
and supplies, even packag-es of pencils were new and unique to each student.
The Rev Matt Vaught, of Richmond, and Dr Karen Pierce of the church were teachers. Several local citizens donated relevant books to help teachers cre-ate curriculum.
One student who be-longs to another church told Pastor Whitt, “If you do this next summer, be sure to let us know. I want to come again.”

A Fleming County man was killed and young Flem-ing County woman is facing murder charges following a shooting incident last week on Convict Pike.
Alison Haines, 20, re-mains lodged in the Mason County Detention Center (MCDC) on $250,000 cash bond charged with one
count of murder, 1st de-gree.
According to court docu-ments, a summary dispatch report and comments from officers on the scene, Brent Tester, 33, was shot twice with a handgun brandished by Haines at approximately 10:32 pm, June 17, 2020.
Brent Tester was shot once in the right abdomen and once in the chest, fol-lowing an altercation at 2198 Convict Pike, which involved the victim, his cousin, Christopher Tester,
two unidentified woman and an unidentified driver of a silver sedan who trans-ported Haines to and from the Tester residence.
The handgun used to fire the fatal shots was alleg-edly purchased by Chris-topher Tester for Haines several months prior to the incident, when he and Haines were involved in a relationship, according to one officer on the scene.
According to a sum-marized Fleming County Dispatch Log, Christopher Tester called 911 after the shooting and Fleming County EMS personnel responded immediately as did Fleming County Sher-iff’s Deputies, Bradley Mc-Intyre, William Hendrix
and James Welch.Flemingsburg Police Of-
ficers Jacob Hartzell and Sgt. Daniel Pollock also responded to the scene as well as one supervising officer with the Flemings-burg Fire Department.
Brent Tester was taken by ambulance to the Flem-ing County hospital where he was pronounced de-
ceased by a hospital emer-gency room physician, shortly after his arrival, ac-cording to Fleming County Coroner Winston Grannis.
Haines fled the scene shortly after the shooting, with an unidentified male driving a silver sedan. Ac-cording to Fleming Coun-ty Sheriff Gary Kinder, Haines threw the pistol used to fire the fatal shots out of the window into a hay field near tester’s home after fleeing the scene.
The pistol was later re-covered.
Haines went to Blue-bank, on Hall Road to her father’s home.
Several Kentucky State Police Officers, including Sgt. Eugene Robinson, and
Detectives Jared Wagner and Brad Watson, respond-ed to the Hall Road scene along with Fleming County Sheriff Gary Kinder.
Alison Haines and an un-identified cousin refused to exit the home until ap-proximately one hour later when Haines and the cous-in (who had warrants from another county) were taken into custody. Haines was arrested by detective Wag-ner, who continues to lead the murder investigation.
Haines is scheduled to have an arraignment in Fleming District Court June 24, 2020.
All persons are to be pre-sumed innocent until prov-en guilty or pleading guilty.

Melanie Erwin told Bath County Board of Education members at their meeting on Monday that Dr. Jessica Lykins with the Gateway District Health Department had signed off on their plans for the in-person ceremony.
The ceremony was devel-oped in consultation with all of the Class of 2020 mem-bers.
Erwin said 75 students, or about 80 percent of the Class of 2020, will be par-ticipating in the ceremony.
The students will be seat-ed on the track and turf field 6 feet apart, for social dis-tancing, and they will walk across a stage and pick up their diplomas from a table rather than be handed one by school officials.
Students will wear masks until it is time to pick up diplomas and pose for pho-tographs. Instead of hand-shakes from school offi-cials, there will be a “line of encouragement.”
There will also be a hat toss following the ceremo-ny, with each person re-sponsible for his or her own hat.
Spectators will be al-lowed in the bleachers or in the grass area next to the concession stand, as long as they observe social dis-tancing with their families. Spectators are encouraged to wear masks.
School Resource Officers will be on-hand to help with social distancing.
Erwin also said that alter-nate plans will be made for weather-related problems.
“This is an opportunity for our students one last time to gather together,” Erwin said. “It’s just a way we can give them back something they’ve lost and keep them safe as possible.”

to be more students who opt for the online option. However, if more students opt for in-person instruc-tion, class sizes would be reduced and would meet a minimum of two days a week, and students would be divided into two groups so each classroom can best follow social distancing guidelines.
The online plan would allow a student to enroll fully online at home with teacher support during the school year.
Tackett said earlier in the meeting during the work session that four task forces involving 50 mem-bers, had been created and centered on operations, ex-ceptional learners, teach-ing, and health and safety, to tackle KDE guidelines in each of those areas, which he called “monumental.”
He also said that parent/guardian and staff surveys data had been collected to help with this planning pro-cess.
Instructional Supervi-sor Karen Hammonds dis-cussed the survey data. She noted that the parent/guardian survey response rate was very high, with 623 people responding for 1164 students in the dis-trict. 172 staff members responded.
Hammonds focused on the high school parent survey responses during her discussion with board members. When asked if they were comfortable with sending their chil-dren back to school for in-person classes, 56 percent said yes, and 46 percent said no. For those who said no, almost 60 percent said that the coronavirus was their top concern.
66 percent expressed their support for an online learning option to be part of a return-to-school plan.
Parents also responded to questions about putting their children on a bus (49
percent yes, 51 percent no), lunches in the cafete-ria (48 percent yes to cafe-teria lunches, 20 percent to bagged meals from home, 32 percent support both), to wearing masks (81 per-cent yes, 19 percent no).
Most of those who re-sponded they had access to a computer in the home (83 percent), internet access in the home (90 cent yes), and cell phone service (88 percent), but Hammonds later clarified that the survey was online, so that would bias some of the answers. She said that internet access is going to have to be part of any plan for a return to school.
Hammonds also dis-cussed staff surveys from the high school, and most of the answers regarding non-traditional instruction during the previous school year indicated that it need-ed improvement.
During the regular meet-ing each member of the Reentry Task Force gave a brief overview of their groups’ work for board members during the meet-ing, including Karen Ham-monds, with quality teach-ing and learning; Kim Whitt with exceptional learning and special educa-tion; John Slone with Op-erations; and Kim Biddle with Health and Safety.
Slone said his task force focused on “a day in the life of a student,” from get-ting on a bus, taking tem-peratures, wearing masks, how to maintain social distancing in the school building, trips to the bath-room, signing in and out of a classroom, and fire drills, among other topics.
Board members thanked the task force members for all of their hard work so far. Board member John Steele commented that they may have to hire additional cus-todial and support staff to keep up with cleaning in order to take the work-load off of teachers in their classrooms.

An Olympia man was arrested on Saturday on multiple drug trafficking charges.
Tyler Aaron Taborn, 31, was arrested by Deputy Sheriff Taylor Davidson and charged with traffick-ing in a controlled sub-stance, first degree, first of-fense, opiates, 10 or more drug units; trafficking in a controlled substance, first degree, first offense, 2 or more grams meth-amphetamine; trafficking a controlled substance, first offense, heroin; pos-session of a handgun by a convicted felon; persistent felony offense, first de-gree; trafficking in a con-trolled substance, first of-fense; possession of drug paraphernalia; possession/manufacture counterfeit; and deliver/manufacture drug paraphernalia
Deputy Davidson noted in the arrest warrant that he arrived at a residence on Vista Lane owned by Taborn on Saturday, July 13, and asked Levi Mar-tin for his driver’s license. Martin stated they were inside the residence, and Davidson allowed him to go into to get them.
When Martin did not return, Davidson said he looked through the win-dows to try and locate Martin. Davidson said he observed a brown, pow-dery substance which
appeared to be heroin, a white powdery substance that appeared to be fentan-yl, a hard clear substance that appeared to be meth-amphetamine, three other types of controlled sub-stances, including Xanax, Diazepam, and Hydromor-phone, a .22 handgun, mul-tiple loaded needles, and $220 in cash.
Davidson arrested Taborn on the warrant this past Saturday.
Taborn was lodged in the Rowan County Deten-tion Center on a $7500 cash bond. No court date has been scheduled on these charges.
Taborn is scheduled to be arraigned in Bath Circuit Court on August 20 in another case on the charges of second-degree assault, public intoxication-controlled substance, and resisting arrest.
All individuals are con-sidered innocent until proven guilty or pleading guilty in court.

Menifee County Board of Education members deliv-ered their first superinten-dent evaluation since 2014 and gave Supt. Tim Spencer a rating of “Accomplished” during his first year in the position.
Board members met for about an hour in closed ses-sion during last Thursday’s regular June meeting to conduct preliminary discus-sion of his evaluation before returning to open session to announce their ratings.
State law requires that school boards perform an annual evaluation of the su-perintendent under the Pro-fessional Growth and Effec-tiveness System for school
administrative staff. Superintendents are
rated on seven leadership standards, including in-structional, cultural, human resources, managerial, col-laborative, influential and strategic, as well as on self-collected evidence compiled through the year by the su-perintendent.
Board member April Smith spoke for the board in discussing their evaluation. She said they used a 4-point scale for the rating, with a 1 meaning “Needs Growth,” 2 as “Developing,” 3 as “Ac-complished,” and 4 as “Ex-emplary.”
She said Spencer was rat-ed on each leadership stan-dard as follows: strategic leadership, 3.5; instruction-al, 3.6; cultural, 3.1; human resources, 3.3; managerial, 3.7; collaborative, 3.5; and institutional, 3.6; for an aver-
age score of 3.5, in the Ac-complished range.
“He’s doing an excellent job,” Smith said. “He’s one of the best we’ve ever hired. He’s done his level best to make sure we are in front of everything. He’s been trans-parent with our parents, our students, our teachers, and we hope he continues to be with us for a long time.”
She added, “We also want the meeting to reflect our leadership over his as well. This is not a perfect score, but it does reflect how we communicated our needs and desires to the superin-tendent. Even though it’s not a perfect score, he’s do-ing an awesome job.”
Spencer was hired for the superintendent’s posi-tion last July. He previously served as state manager for the Menifee County School District from 2015 to 2019.
(in person votes only - not in-cluding absentee ballots)
Menifee County Clerk Krystal Chapman said that while she and her staff counted all votes they had received by 6 p.m. on election night, and will release partial votes totals that evening, they will not have final totals available for absen-tee ballots.
The Clerk’s Office could accept mailed-in absentee ballots by 6 p.m. on Saturday, April 27, if they are postmarked by April 23.
Chapman said she, her staff, and the County Board of Elections will meet that Saturday at 1 p.m. for the final count at the courthouse. At that time, they will scan in the re-maining absentee ballots and have them counted.

The first day of school for Menifee County stu-dents has been scheduled for Monday, August 26.
What exactly school will look like for the coming year remains to be deter-mined.
Menifee Board of Educa-tion members voted during their regular June meeting last Thursday to approve a revised 2020-21 school cal-endar with the opening day for students set for a little later than usual in August.
Due to audio problems during the meeting’s inter-net livestream, the News-Outlook contacted Supt. Tim Spencer after the meeting for clarification of details.
Spencer said the later start is allowed under Ken-
tucky law as long as stu-dents receive a total of 1062 hours of instruction dur-ing the school year. The school year is normally at least 170 days.
He also said that what the school day will look like for students and staff is still in the planning stages and will include data gathered from surveys and individ-ual contact with parents or guardians of students.
He emphasized that the school districts will put the health and safety of its stu-dents first.
School districts across the state ended in-person instruction under state COVID-19 coronavirus re-strictions on March 16 and began using non-traditional instructions, including packets and online learn-ing, until the end of the se-mesters in May.
The Kentucky Depart-ment of Education has is-
sued several sets of guid-ance for school districts for the 202-21 school year, which will allow districts to decide on the best way to teaching students while the coronavirus pandemic remains a public health concern. Teaching may in-clude in-person instruction, online instruction, or a mix of both.
Supt. Spencer said he and district staff will have something in place for the upcoming school year to present to the public by mid-July.
He also said during the meeting that High School Principal Lana Swartz has been working with Athletic Director Jeff Eaglin to de-velop a return to fall sports, using both Kentucky High School Athletic Association

Following the loosening of coronavirus restrictions in public across the state last month, areas around the state have seen a rise in the number of cases.
Gateway District Health Director Greg Brewer said in an email on Tuesday, “There has been an uptick but we feel it is due to in-creased testing, especially asymptomatic testing.”
Brewer noted that the Gateway District, which includes Bath, Menifee, Morgan, Rowan, and El-liott Counties, has, since the public health state of emergency was declared on March 6, has seen 1 death, and there are two patients in the district cur-rently hospitalized. The rest of the current cases are isolating at home or are asymptomatic.
He also noted that while positive cases have been found in nursing homes in the Gateway District (1 in Rowan, 1 in Menifee, and 2 in Bath), all have been as-ymptomatic as well.
Since the state began collecting the number of positive cases in March, there have been a total of 11 cases in Bath County; 3
in Elliott; 11 in Menifee; 8 in Morgan; and 21 in Row-an County.
The number of cases has risen in surrounding coun-ties, including Montgom-ery County. The Mont-gomery County Health Department announced on Sunday that it has its 50th case in the county, with 23 currently active cases.
Free coronavirus test-ing remains available at St. Claire Medical Center in Morehead. Extended test-ing hours are on Wednes-days from 12 PM – 7 PM. St. Claire HealthCare con-tinues to offer COVID-19 testing just outside the St. Claire Medical Pavilion from 7 AM – 2 PM, Mon-day, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday, for anyone who wants to be tested. Test-ing is available for all in-dividuals, even those that have already been tested. Complete the COVID-19 prescreening online at www.st-claire.org/covid-screening or by calling 606.780.5227.
Brewer emphasizes the continued importance of wearing a mask or face covering in public places, practicing at least 6 feet of social distancing in public, and frequent handwashing or use of hand sanitizer to prevent the further spread of the coronavirus.

The Menifee County School District is develop-ing a plan for a return to fall sports this year.
The COVID-19 coronavi-rus pandemic led to the clo-sure of all public schools in Kentucky in March, and with that spring sports was also called to a halt.
While there remains a great deal of uncertainty
regarding sports for the fall, the Kentucky High School Athletic Associa-tion began issued guide-lines a few weeks ago for a return to spring sports.
In Menifee County, High School Principal Lana Swartz is working closely with Athletic Director Jeff Eaglin and recently-hired School Administrative Manager Kaitlin Haney to develop a plan.
Swartz said in an email on Tuesday, “We are work-ing on a plan to put student athlete wellness first. The
plan will meet the guide-lines of KHSAA, CDC, as well as local expectations.”
Athletic Director Eaglin said later Tuesday, “We want to stress the safety of all our student athletes and community. I have been meeting with coaches in-dividually to best prepare our facilities and policies to assure a safe return to sports environment that adheres to all guidelines.”
The News-Outlook will provide updates on this plan as we receive them.

Board members wel-comed Frenchburg Mayor Edward Bryant to their meeting and thanked him for his work in helping to se-cure grant funding for water and sewer lines to the new Menifee Central School.
Bryant said grant fund-ing for the sewer has been approved and it will go out for bid within the next two to three weeks. He also said the City of Frenchburg will pay the electric bill for the sewer pump station that will be required for the new sewer line.
