Each year, Shelby County High School honors seniors who consistently demonstrate leadership, character, and commitment to our Rocket community with the Senior Leader Hoodie. This recognition is not about titles—it’s about action, attitude, and impact.

Good morning Dr. Kent, this is from the Social Media team with Lacer. We just wanted to try out using the app, since we finally have the time to. Let us know if this works or not!
Today was College Application Day at SCHS! Our seniors took a big step toward their futures by completing college applications with support from counselors and staff. We’re proud of our Class of 2026! 💙🚀 #SCHSRockets #CollegeApplicationDay





⸻ 🎓 Senior Hoodie Spotlight! 💙💛 At Shelby County High School, leadership isn’t about a title—it’s about action. 🚀 All year long, we celebrate our senior leaders with Senior Hoodies—a symbol of dedication, character, and the positive impact they make on our school community. Each time a senior earns a hoodie, it means they’ve consistently demonstrated what it means to be a Rocket: ✨ Leading by example ✨ Supporting others ✨ Taking initiative ✨ Living our core values every day Congratulations to our latest Senior Hoodie recipients! Your leadership shines bright and reminds us that we do more together than we can alone. 💫 Keep showing us what “Go Beyond” looks like, Rockets! #SCHSRockets #SeniorHoodie #RocketLeaders #GoBeyond #LeadershipInAction






During lunch today, our students gathered around local veterans to hear their stories, ask questions, and learn what service truly means. Thank you to these heroes for spending time with our Rockets and inspiring the next generation. 🇺🇸💙 #RocketsGoBeyond #VeteransDay

Today we honor Martha Layne Collins: a proud Shelby County resident, graduate of Shelbyville High School, a former teacher, Kentucky’s first and only female governor, and the namesake of our Titans. Governor Collins was a steadfast supporter of Shelby County, its students, and pushing education forward across the entire state; always leading by example and showing just how high our young people can reach. It is an honor to be part of her lasting legacy, and we will continue to carry forward her vision and good work for generations to come. Our thoughts go out to her family and friends during this time.

Good luck to our girls and boys cross country team as they compete in the state cross country meet tomorrow!

College & Career Wednesday at SCHS! Every Wednesday, SCHS opens the doors to amazing opportunities for our students during lunch! Today, we were thrilled to welcome Western Kentucky University, the U.S. Navy, Bluegrass Community & Technical College, and Kentucky State University.

Due to rainfall and current road conditions in certain areas of Shelby County, SCPS parents can come to school at any time to check their student(s) out of school. This is for all grade levels.
Tonight we celebrated our incredible senior athletes who have given their heart, hustle, and leadership to Rocket Soccer. These young men and women have left their mark on Shelby County High School both on and off the field.
Thank you for the dedication, teamwork, and spirit you’ve shown through every practice, every game, and every moment of representing the Rockets. Your legacy will live on in the program, and we can’t wait to see the amazing things you’ll do next.

"The Principal Perspective" #3 with Dr. Carla Kent is out now: an in-depth interview about Shelby County High School's principal and her vision for the school. Watch now! 🚀
