Dr. Jim McIntyre, Superintendent of the Knox County Schools, delivered the inaugural “State of the Schools” Report and Address on Thursday, January 19 at Gresham Middle School. School Board Chairman Thomas Deakins, County Mayor Tim Burchett and Great Schools Partnership President Buzz Thomas also shared their perspectives on public education in our community.

The inaugural event, co-hosted by the Knoxville Chamber of Commerce and the Knox County Council PTA, provided an overview of academic progress in the Knox County Schools toward the goals outlined in its district-wide Strategic Plan.  The Knox County Board of Education approved the plan, entitled Excellence for All Children, in 2009. The report also highlighted the additional work necessary to provide our students with an excellent education in today’s increasingly competitive global environment.   The event provided attendees with information on how to best support public education in Knox County.
