Welcome!
Blue Grass Baptist School has been educating hearts and minds in Lexington, KY since 1969.
Started as a Kindergarten program in a local Baptist church, Blue Grass Baptist School has grown to a K-12th grade school.
We know that once you look into what we have to offer,
you will easily see what an awesome work that God is doing in this place.
Our Christian based
educational program strives to make our school a place where
Jesus Christ lives in the hearts and minds of those who
teach and those who learn. We focus on bringing the home,
church, and school into a partnership for the purpose of
training the next generation.
Our small student-teacher
ratio in the regular classroom setting allows our teachers
the luxury of addressing each child’s needs daily. Additionally,
enrichment activities are provided through such programs
as 4-H club, National Jr. & Sr. Honor Society, Beta club, D.A.R.E.,
STLP (Student Leadership Technology Program), Pep Club,
Pep Band, and Journalism.
We have a dynamic athletics program for both elementary
and high school students, lead by dedicated coaches and
parents.

Vision Statement:
Our
vision is to provide an excellent Christian Education, uniting
home, church and school in Jesus Christ through Kingdom
Education so that the generations to come will know the
Truth of God’s Word and not forget His works, nor be taken
captive by the vain philosophies of their day.

elementary students (K-6th grade) are offered
a strong academic program with a fun and exciting learning
environment. Our curriculum includes a variety of subjects
including a strong phonetic reading curriculum, math, handwriting,
Bible, reading skills, science, social studies, physical
education, music, art and other special units. Academic
progress is measured in the spring through the Comprehensive
Test of Basic Skills (CTBS). Our goal is to shape the whole
child, not just academically, but in every area of their
lives by challenging them to be all God has created them
to be.
