McCracken County Schools will be in session, on February 19, 2024, and March 15, 2024, to make up two snow days. Our school district missed a total of four days in January due to inclement weather. The 2023-2024 school calendar will be reduced two calendar days so students will not make up the other two snow days. Non-traditional instruction (NTI) days will be used for any additional full school days missed going forward.


Congratulations to the McCracken County High School Academic Team! #SmartStangs #McCrackenProud The Mustangs placed 1st in all 8 events and swept 3 Content Assessment categories. This allowed McCracken to score 80 points on the day and grab the 1st Place Overall trophy.
