Our choir filled the room with such beauty and emotion. Every note, every harmony was a testament to their hard work and passion. We couldn’t be more proud of these talented Jaguars for not only sharing their incredible voices but for moving us all with the power of music. Their performance wasn’t just heard, it was felt. Thank you for reminding us how special it is when voices come together in perfect harmony.





These boys..no..these young men have created an unforgettable experience!

The voices of our Cantemus Choir are echoing through the beautiful sanctuary of Edgewood Baptist and we can't help but think their voices are carrying throughout Nicholasville. Can you hear it? Do you feel it?


As we continue through Kentucky Safe Schools Week, we want to recognize the incredible work of Mrs. Turner and Mrs. Fugate, our school's gatekeepers! These two ensure that every visitor is properly checked in and screened, playing a vital role in maintaining the safety of our students and staff. We would also like to share about our Raptor System, which checks in guests and conducts background checks on all visitors, helping us create a secure environment for learning. Together, we will continue to keep our Jaguars safe!



Join our choir department for their fall concert this evening! You'll hear their voices ringing through the town tonight at 7pm.
