Dear FTIS Students, Families and Staff,

What a wonderful time to be part of the Fort Thomas Independent School District!  Built upon a foundation of generational excellence, our students, families, community, faculty and staff are working together to provide one-of-a-kind opportunities for our students. Last year our students and staff continued to demonstrate excellence in the classroom, on the stage, athletic fields, and were recognized as champions and leaders throughout the Commonwealth. These continued efforts resulted in the Fort Thomas Independent Schools being recognized as the top performing academic K-12 district in the Commonwealth. We are, Rich in Tradition, Focused on the Future, and I am truly honored to have the opportunity to serve as your superintendent.  

With eyes to the future, our team is committed to preparing each individual student to realize their personal success and for our schools to serve as the heartbeat of this thriving community. Informed by research and deep community involvement, we will continue to build the competencies each child needs to be competitive in the workforce and post-secondary education as described in our Portrait of a Graduate work. 

Last year we launched our five-year strategic plan designed to “spark” the renewal necessary after the challenges facing our nation. This strategic plan is grounded in stakeholder voice, empowerment and the ability to innovate to meet the needs of our students and community. The priorities outlined include ensuring our district remains among the top school districts in the nation in achievement, offers experiences and opportunities second to none, focuses on a positive and engaged school culture and ensures we are impacting individual student growth toward future success. Please visit the link above and each of the associated “priority pages” to view how our teams are measuring progress and the focus activities for the upcoming year.   

To remain up to date with all the events and activities throughout the district,
we encourage you to visit calendar information on our website at https://www.fortthomas.kyschools.us.  

Our theme for the 2023-2024 school year is FTIS: United—a recognition that we are truly at our best in Fort Thomas when we rally behind our five schools and work together as a unified team. Our teachers, principals, administrative staff and I encourage your feedback. Building upon amazing community support and energized by the best student body, faculty and staff in the state, we will continue to build excellence together. This is the tradition that drives everything we do. It is a great day to be in the Fort and I look forward to your partnership as we achieve continued success together.

Sincerely,

Brian Robinson
Superintendent
