Discovery School
The Discovery School process for students to apply usually begins in February of the students' current 5th grade year.
A STEM-based learning environment for cohorts of 6th, 7th, and 8th graders
To be a candidate for the Discovery School, you must be:
* A current BCPS 5th grade student - This year the process is open to all interested 5th graders
If your child is not a current BCPS student, you will want to contact Hebron Middle School 502-869-4200. (You must show proof of your Bullitt County residency, similar to registering your child in the public school... Parents must bring a driver's license and 2 current bills displaying the residential address. Or, if you are building a house in Bullitt County, you must bring proof of your building contract for a future address. The only out-of-district students who may apply would be those who are already paying tuition for being out-of-district & have one of the above * qualifications.)

Click the image for an article that explains a little about our county's program for selected middle school students. The Discovery School is offered as a hands-on, advanced math and science program for current 6th, 7th, & 8th grade students. Students are transported to Hebron Middle School and engage in online classes for credit in other subject areas, besides math/science. Fifth grade applications for this program will be mailed to potential candidates in the Spring of the fifth grade student's school year. The video above explains more about the Discovery School opportunities.
