  • FCPS response to the COVID-19 pandemic

    All Fayette County Public Schools closed as of March 16 and will not reopen until at least April 20. District offices are also closed to the public.

    NTI

    Schools are coordinating their NTI, or Non-Traditional Instruction, for distance learning. Look for an NTI menu tab on your school's homepage, or watch for direct communications from your children's teachers. 

    • Tech support: The district has set up a temporary help-desk for families who need technical support with their child's FCPS account or Chromebook. The Student Tech Support line, (859) 381-4410, is available from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. weekdays (excluding spring break). 

    Keep those brains active!

    Additional educational activities appropriate for each grade level are also available; see the Instructional Activities menu tab.

    A phone call away

    You can reach the district's central office at (859) 381-4100 from 7:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. weekdays. Interpreters are available.

    Need a nurse?

    HealthFirst Bluegrass clinics at our schools can provide essential care for children and families, though not every site is open while schools are out. Call a clinic to make an appointment.

    Ask for help

    If children and families need support from a mental health professional, call (859) 381-4100 to be connected with someone who can help.

    Family Resource and Youth Services Centers will also be available by phone to support families with essential needs.
