Constitutional Convention Reenactment in LCHS Government Class!
Mr. McCoy’s LCHS government students were transported back in time to the era of the Constitutional Convention, which took place from May 25 to September 17, 1787, in Philadelphia, PA. The class reenacted the convention, with students assigned specific roles representing various historical figures. These individuals represented diverse states and regions, each assigned the responsibility of voicing various interests. Initially convened to revise the Articles of Confederation, this event ultimately sparked debate and led to the drafting of the United States Constitution, making it one of the most significant events in American history.
Student Perspectives:
Lara-Mae Ben Aoun, a current LCHS junior and international exchange student from Germany, shared, “To further immerse ourselves in the subject matter, we each took on the role of a different historical figure. By embodying these individuals and delving into their perspectives, I gained a much deeper understanding of the complex issues and debates that shaped the US Constitution. It was engaging and an effective way to learn, bringing history to life in a way that textbooks simply cannot do. As someone from Germany, it was fascinating to see the foundation of the American government. And through each of us playing a different person, it made it even more fun!”
Piper Waugh, a LCHS senior, explained, “It was a great learning experience! I was able to understand new things about the convention that I had never realized before. I learned more about our founding fathers, the process of how the convention unfolded, and how decisions were made to form our new government.”
Luisa Straeten, a current LCHS junior and also an international exchange student from Germany, noted, “I think reenacting the Constitutional Convention was a good way to understand how decisions were made. Through us, the students, representing people who were involved in the convention, we were able to learn about each individual's opinion on the different topics. We also learned the rules on the procedures, such as saying aye for agreement and nay for opposition. I found I was way more fun, easier to remember, and better able to understand the whole concept by acting it out than by just reading about it. This was something I wasn’t really familiar with because it's not really discussed in Germany, so it made it a lot easier.”

Congratulations to Luke Fetherolf, a senior at LCHS, who signed a letter of intent with Union Commonwealth University, located in Barbourville, KY, on Friday, February 27th, to further his education and football career. The signing ceremony took place in the LCHS library, attended by Luke's coaches, teammates, and family, to celebrate the memorable event.
LCHS Football Coach Alan Short delivered heartfelt remarks reflecting on Luke's four-year journey with the LC Bulldogs. “To put it simply, he is one of a kind. I believe everyone in this room would agree that he is an exceptionally talented football player. Moreover, he is an even better person,” he stated. He continued, “Luke, your time as a Bulldog has made a lasting impact on this program. You have elevated the standards, shaped the culture, and represented this community with great pride. We are incredibly proud of you, grateful for your influence, and excited to see you continue to grow, compete, and succeed at the next level.”
Mr. Darin Fetherolf, Luke’s father, expressed his pride in his son's strong faith and work ethic, noting that Luke developed a profound love for sports at a very young age.
In a humble expression of gratitude, Luke shared, "First of all, nothing is possible without God in your life. If you don't have God in your life, you won't be successful. I want to thank all my coaches and teammates for being there for me. My parents, for always putting in the blood, sweat, and tears for me. Nothing is possible without you guys and for you being by my side. And to all my coaches, I just want to thank you guys. Thank you for everything!"
Again, we congratulate Luke on this amazing accomplishment! We wish him the very best in his future endeavors at Union Commonwealth University! #LCisHome

During the ceremony, several students shared how Mrs. Blackburn has impacted them personally through her classes. Agriculture sophomore, Samantha Spradlin, shared, “Mrs. Blackburn inspires me to do better each day and makes learning about agriculture interesting and fun.” LCHS FFA President, Mikka Horn, expressed, “Mrs. Blackburn is a role model who encouraged and motivated me to step up in situations where I was nervous. This helped me to grow and develop confidence. She has shown me how much teachers care about their students!” LCHS co-worker, Crystal Cavins, shared, “Mrs. Blackburn goes above and beyond for her students and school. I can’t think of anyone more deserving of this award!”
Mrs. Blackburn was visibly emotional when asked about the significance of this award. “This is a dream award because it comes from my students! It isn’t determined by measurable means. My students recognized this in me, and that is why it means so much!” Again, congratulations to Mrs. Blackburn, who truly goes above and beyond for her students, schools, and community. We value the important contributions she makes in preparing our LC students to become future leaders in agriculture and other industries. #LCisHome
