New principal named, future Warren Elementary location to open next fall

BOWLING GREEN, Ky. – The Warren County Public Schools district is welcoming Josh Porter as the next principal of Warren Elementary School.

The announcement this afternoon served not only as a beginning but also a homecoming for the new principal.

Porter has prior education experience working with Warren Elementary, and most recently until 2019, Bowling Green High School.

Porter says, “The facility that we’ve been through and that we’ve been in the last 40 years is showing some wear and tear. And so, it’s going to be great to get into a new school. And that brings a lot of excitement for teachers, for students, and so, looking forward to it.”

For now, Porter will assume his responsibilities starting July 1, 2024 at the current Warren Elementary location on Loop Street.

The new Warren Elementary School is being built on Brookwood Drive, which is set to open in fall 2025.
