The Knoxville School Board will meet in special session today. Superintendent Cassi Pearson says the board will consider hiring recommendations and a turf project.

“We hope to be hiring a director of special education, as well as accepting a bid for turf. That bid letting happened about two weeks ago. The turf is being suggested for Randy Wilson Track to allow us to have more activities in a single day. Having that as turf will allow us to not worry about maintaining grass.”

Also on the agenda is consideration of the list of graduates and facilities usage. The Knoxville School Board special meeting begins at 5:30 p.m. at the Knoxville Schools Administration Building.
