Principal's Message

Hello.  I am Sarah Roy, principal at the Lake Cumberland Area Technology Center.  I am honored and excited to serve the students of both Adair and Russell counties in this capacity.  As educators, we have the opportunity to build lasting relationships with our students and help teach and prepare them for post-secondary life.  Each day nearly 600 students walk through the doors of the area technology center.  Among these students are our future carpenters, maintenance mechanics, nurses, electricians, welders, doctors, machinists, auto technicians, and many other professionals.  The staff at the LCATC is committed to providing ALL students a quality education to help them succeed after high school. 

Today’s value of career and technical education is unparalleled, and our programs allow students to explore a large range of options for their future, both inside and outside of the traditional classroom.  Students are able to develop a deep understanding of the specific trades they are passionate about and also acquire valuable soft skills that will help them in any career pathway they choose.  Additionally, our school works closely with community stakeholders and business and industry leaders to help ensure students leave with the skills needed to successfully enter the workforce, right here in their local community. 

As we prepare to begin the building of the new Lake Cumberland Regional College and Workforce Center, we anticipate the number of opportunities to only increase for our students and community.  Our school has a strong foundation, made up of a knowledgeable and dedicated staff, all of whom are experts in their respective fields.  We look forward to continuing to educate and train tomorrow’s workforce in this state-of-the-art facility.   As we move forward, our vision is to provide real-world application of learning, the development of real-world skills, to increase real options for our students.   If you have questions or would like more information about the programs that are offered at the LCATC, please feel free to contact us at 270-866-6175. 

Respectfully,

Sarah Roy
