School Board continues Search for Director of Schools

The Manchester Board of Education is continuing to work through the process of hiring a new Director of Schools.
During a recent work session school board members used a grading system to help judge each applicant. Board member Lisa Gregory said she didn’t want the grading system to be the exclusive judge of who gets an interview.
The top ranking applicants were Jan Harris, of Huntsville; Sharon Harper of Chattanooga; William Childers, of Grundy County followed by Sharon Edwards.
The next school board meeting is scheduled for Monday, Feb. 8.
