The first Knoxville School District Leadership Academy begins next week, and there is still time to sign up. Superintendent Cassi Pearson says this involves four sessions where attendees will learn more about the operation of the district.

“Anyone is welcome to attend. It’s going to be four Wednesday evenings about getting more detailed information about the school and how we operate. We welcome anyone to join us. We currently have 11 people signed up, and we’re looking forward to launching that on August 18th.”

There is no cost to attend, and dinner will be provided to all participants. Click here to register.
