We are excited to announce Ms. Twana Hayes as the next principal of Caverna High School! Ms. Hayes brings strong leadership experience, a deep commitment to student success, and a passion for Caverna students and our community. We are confident she will continue to build a positive school culture and help lead Caverna High School forward. Caverna Middle School and Caverna High School are not merging. Ms. Hayes will serve as the lead principal for both schools, which share one building but remain two separate schools with their own codes, SBDM councils, and dedicated staff assignments.

Basic Basketball Skills Training starts in June!

Our last Alumni Spotlight for the 2025-2026 school year is Twana Hayes!

💜 The nomination form for the CIS Alumni Spotlight will remain open over the summer. We will begin posting for the 2026-2027 school year in August! If you need assistance nominating an alumni, please reach out to Ms. Tobin (melissa.tobin@caverna.kyschools.us)!

Yesterday, Caverna Elementary teachers and staff were treated to a special luncheon featuring homemade chicken salad, pimento cheese, a fresh fruit tray, and a vegetable tray. This wonderful meal was prepared by Mrs. Kelly Paul, our amazing culinary teacher, along with her talented culinary students at Caverna Middle/High School. We are incredibly grateful to the Caverna Board of Education and central office staff for sponsoring this thoughtful event and for their continued support of our school family. A heartfelt thank-you goes out to everyone who helped make today so meaningful. Your kindness, generosity, and appreciation for our teachers and staff are deeply valued and truly made this luncheon special.
