Our very own Maddie Lemmings officially graduated from the Southwest Human Resource Agency Youth Leadership Program! 🎓 Since August, she’s had the privilege of learning about the incredible work SWHRA does to support families and individuals across 16 counties in West Tennessee. Through this program, she has gained a deeper understanding of their mission to promote self-sufficiency, alleviate poverty, and improve the quality of life in our communities.
She’s honored to have received a $250 scholarship, generously donated by Bolivar Utilities, as part of this journey. Huge thanks to SWHRA for this amazing opportunity. Here's to continuing to make a positive impact in our communities!
LHS freshmen Lauren Brown and Slade Gibson attended the 78th Annual Tennessee 4-H State Congress in Murfreesboro and Nashville this week.

Thank you for representing Lexington High School!
LHS Tennis’s season is now in full swing. The team opened up district play this week with strong showings. They have played two out-of-district matches with Scotts Hill and Bolivar and 3 district matches with South Side, Crockett County, and North Side. The boys overall record is 4-0, were not able to finish their match with Scotts Hill, and a district record of 3-0. The girls overall record is 3-2 with a district record of 3-0. Both teams are playing strong tennis and continued to improve with their three matches this week. When they return from spring break they will continue district play with two tough matches against Haywood and Dyer County. Proud of how these players are not only playing but also representing our school, county, and themselves. GO BIG RED!!!
