“I'm extremely honored and privileged to be the new athletic director at Highlands High School,” said Caldwell. “Highlands has one of the most storied athletic programs in Kentucky history and is one of the top schools academically. I'm very grateful for this opportunity that my family and I have been given and can't wait to begin working with this already amazing athletic program.”

Born and raised in Lexington, KY, Caldwell attended Lexington Catholic High School, where he lettered five years in baseball, four years in football, and one season in basketball. He was a three-year starter and part of the football team that won Middle Tennessee’s first bowl game – the New Orleans Bowl. Wes and his wife Sara have a daughter Mila Grace who is seven.
