Board staff said the state has identified about 140 full‑time teachers who meet the program’s eligibility criteria and that the state will send roughly $324,000 to pay $2,000 per eligible teacher. Staff warned the money comes with stipulations: the payout applies to full‑time teachers recorded as classroom teachers in TNCompass who provide direct instruction; it excludes administrators, school nurses and some part‑time or partial‑year educators whose records did not meet the state’s eligibility cutoff.

Board staff presented options for extending some form of payment to other employees and for covering gaps left by the state list. Using figures prepared for the board packet, staff estimated that making up shortfalls for currently assigned certified staff not covered on the state list would cost roughly $56,000. Offering $1,000 for part‑time or partial‑year staff would lower that gap to about $47,000. Paying a $2,000 bonus to all unlicensed personnel districtwide would cost about $152,235. Combined with the state payment, staff said those options could bring the district’s total outlay toward $220,000 if the board chose to expand the program beyond the state‑eligible group.

Staff emphasized that the state requires the district to adopt and upload a board resolution and meeting minutes into ePlan by June 1 to receive the funds. Staff also said the state payment is expected to arrive in July and that funds identified on the state’s list will be paid even if a teacher leaves the district before disbursement.

Board members discussed budget timing and asked for clarification about how the amounts would be reflected in next year’s budget. Finance staff said any decision to add local funds would be captured in an FY2026 budget amendment. No formal vote on the resolution was recorded in the workshop discussion.

Why this matters: accepting the state funds would deliver $2,000 to each state‑eligible teacher but would leave the board to weigh equity and local budget impact if it wishes to extend payments to employees the state excluded. The district must file paperwork by the state deadline to receive the allocation.

Board staff provided the detailed eligibility and cost figures in the meeting packet and asked the board to approve the required resolution at a regular meeting so staff could complete ePlan submission.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","CCBOE Workshop May 2025","oneSentenceSummary","Cannon County Board of Education members on May 8 reviewed the state’s one‑time teacher bonus program and were told the district must pass a resolution to receive the funding.","taxTitle","Cannon County, School Districts, Tennessee","taxId",38836,"location","Tennessee","headline","","shortSummary",{"_33":77,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":78,"_41":79,"_43":80,"_45":81,"_47":82,"_49":83,"_51":84,"_53":85,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":86,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":87,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":74,"_75":74},6566366,"Middle‑school room moves and CTE focus prompt discussion of cramped space and schedule changes at Cannon County Middle School",70,1422000,1492000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3206791-b77fea4bde01e482fd9937fc6528033f&start=1422&end=1492","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3206791-b77fea4bde01e482fd9937fc6528033f/thumbnail_1422000.jpg","/articles/6566366/Tennessee/Middleschool-room-moves-and-CTE-focus-prompt-discussion-of-cramped-space-and-schedule-changes-at-Cannon-County-Middle-School","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6566366-9e753d2df7a0e20a4312196c83192503/orig.mp4?Expires=1771161577&Signature=nmHjjbfr4qTxM5s10~t1cDSriKiJZzDyXzIzRTYYxgqlUSDY5CEKXgHFN68iFtf16CRU20Q88dkkFXZHEin4jqevGUbH~8SASXUTNif7pCCndKYqISQ-7lThKWAB-zR4pUXDrW5xlmt4IejSv-D9K0joCkKLtFVDertIqh80bg74EJhVse05Ey2sOwzfUSNniNHYL9gZMF1nu8ffwDaFG0u5QHb7Pctw1H6wz8SFIhdGoMT38tk9dmII48~rcEYMC70Y98x-py6exSWj-LTDr7TQmyUKkGQyG0l4~pY4HYt-35n4ibceDyRZYOXm4FSEb~lx4i-U84yWkvrQH0qhoQ__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","District staff told the Cannon County Board of Education on May 8 that planned room reassignments and furniture changes at Cannon County Middle School are intended to support a renewed Career and Technical Education (CTE) focus but will require cabinetry removal and construction work.

Staff described a sequence of moves: the current CTE/CTU lab will be repurposed because of restroom access constraints, the band room will remain as a music space and also serve as a library on a split schedule, and an art room will move into a different area of the building. Because of those moves, staff requested permission to remove cabinetry from an identified art room when contractors are on site; staff said the measurement and final layout drawings would arrive this month and that implementation would not begin until at least mid‑June.

During discussion staff described operational pressures that motivated the changes: crowded hallways, students mixing in a narrow corridor during class changes, teachers sharing limited space, and staff currently using closets for offices (therapist and nurse cited). Staff said the district will reduce elective offerings and move to longer instructional blocks for core subjects next year, which they expect will reduce the number of simultaneous electives and ease space demand.

Staff asked the board to approve removal of cabinetry when the project reaches the implementation phase and to allow the design contractor to finalize drawings. No formal vote on cabinetry removal was recorded in the workshop session.

Why this matters: the room moves and furniture changes aim to prioritize CTE and core instruction while addressing safety and scheduling constraints; changes affect classroom assignments, specialists’ spaces and the scheduling of electives.

Staff said they would provide new drawings and a timeline in an upcoming packet and that the earliest removal would occur in mid‑June.","District staff told the Cannon County Board of Education on May 8 that planned room reassignments and furniture changes at Cannon County Middle School are intended to support a renewed CTE focus but will require cabinetry removal and construction work.",{"_33":89,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":90,"_41":91,"_43":92,"_45":93,"_47":94,"_49":95,"_51":96,"_53":97,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":98,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":99,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":74,"_75":74},6566369,"Local business offers in‑kind field‑house flooring; board told HVAC donations likely to cover ventilation work",169,1115000,1284000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3206791-b77fea4bde01e482fd9937fc6528033f&start=1115&end=1284","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3206791-b77fea4bde01e482fd9937fc6528033f/thumbnail_1115000.jpg","/articles/6566369/Tennessee/Local-business-offers-inkind-fieldhouse-flooring-board-told-HVAC-donations-likely-to-cover-ventilation-work","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6566369-06fe33e3ec9650f153fe771ce9424d55/orig.mp4?Expires=1771161577&Signature=RcY4EKEWpIrBmg3954DKG9Z2XkU2p34cTKk6fOu1h93bMCh3121p4ROP9KHSdscLDyMUY2nAc4bupAHKBevztAggtuVoz5JFrEMc-bvlpKeRtec9InUhhp3IVwbODH8wFp-AQvEr0H5tQeGU6HUerzcyqkPIjgsmxY-Gz-uK4J1WmXcl50u6qplztUpAtNUndUrXxUmsh7aD-VIlyDRA7-mqra703sLOLRZMvuDbYdcrF-gD10rSykIAzgFyTwah3iMVWJcnqPOL5qO-mWy5cmdusBjKb50u8T1Jqcnp0W7sWPCKz3doDeEhA0YsBohHd4GAeYXqSHqvGom2Pav-5Q__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Cannon County Board of Education staff reported on May 8 that the district has received and is reviewing in‑kind offers to replace flooring in the athletic field house and to improve ventilation.

Staff said Titan Garage and Flooring of Smyrna has offered to provide new garage‑style epoxy flooring for the field house with a quoted in‑kind value of about $24,000. Staff also said a local giving group, 100 Women Who Care, has pledged up to $14,000 toward HVAC and ventilation improvements. Combined, staff described the total increase in county property value from the proposed flooring and HVAC work at about $43,000.

The flooring vendor requested a nonfinancial sponsorship agreement in exchange for the donation; proposed benefits listed in the meeting packet and described to the board included signage on the field house, occasional game‑day mentions, logo placement during live broadcasts and promotional mentions on district social media. Staff emphasized that no cash would change hands and that the transaction would be completed as in‑kind donations plus a sponsorship package.

Board members asked for project details and a scope of work packet for review. Staff said they would include district maintenance staff in planning and would circulate specifications in the packet for the next meeting. Staff also recommended including the district facilities manager or designated administrator in vendor discussions to ensure oversight of installation and any associated ventilation work.

Why this matters: improved flooring and ventilation address hygiene and safety concerns raised by staff (including past staph infection issues in humid locker rooms) and could reduce maintenance costs and odor problems in the field house without requiring a direct cash expenditure from the district.

Staff asked for permission to accept the donations and to bring final agreements back to the board for formal approval; no final vote on an acceptance agreement was recorded in the workshop discussion.","Cannon County Board of Education staff reported on May 8 that the district has received and is reviewing in‑kind offers to replace field‑house flooring and to improve ventilation.",{"_33":101,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":102,"_41":103,"_43":104,"_45":105,"_47":106,"_49":107,"_51":108,"_53":109,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":110,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":111,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":74,"_75":74},6566361,"Cannon County workshop: consent agenda, budget and routine items listed for board action; votes not recorded in workshop",610,85000,695000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3206791-b77fea4bde01e482fd9937fc6528033f&start=85&end=695","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3206791-b77fea4bde01e482fd9937fc6528033f/thumbnail_85000.jpg","/articles/6566361/Tennessee/Cannon-County-workshop-consent-agenda-budget-and-routine-items-listed-for-board-action-votes-not-recorded-in-workshop","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6566361-f950ba9f766ba89995e85944cc81cee5/orig.mp4?Expires=1771161577&Signature=SQW6h1oIZltv359iO8sIj8rYOSrRprWeON5kUfH8C7qxc03UtZquoGAffbY~IH6fOGP-a~iOSpldk4~avaxVwhw1WCvL~jq8Emr23SZLztOaHyQWhJ52052IHCy4jouZ6RPEfmeIPbc53~cuMVXV10-VZTirLWoLVqDClRGWh3~Rn~26AMxNiRApHixFNaD3QxSWB2ndpUJClHE0sRSNzjLKimq4MyTgcCKGWeeoDeE8q~XZl8x1pVhS8NtfNpcxSbKXvzqVzyXflzrxFb2wIAl9xY50hZpX9D3YUHvZTfzrrYkX9FesKNtJUOsEgEVXs4UUtqFn3XcGJ1vN4rVXhg__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","At the Cannon County Board of Education workshop on May 8 staff reviewed a set of routine and financial agenda items that are scheduled for board action at the regular meeting.

Key items reviewed in the workshop packet and discussion included:

- Consent agenda: approval of minutes from the April 10, 2025 regular meeting; approval of assistant football coaches Robert Adams and George Cochran (contingent on clear background and drug test); approval of Stacy Frazier as CCMS volleyball head coach and Ty Cochran as assistant (contingent on clear background checks). Staff noted those hires are contingent on standard pre‑employment checks.

- Overnight/out‑of‑state trip: Kenny County High School FFA Camp (trip ID 4859) to Camp Clemens, Dyersburg, Tennessee, June 4–6, 2025.

- Tenure and personnel: staff listed tenure recommendations for qualifying teachers for 2024–25 and other personnel items in the packet.

- FY2026 general purpose budget: staff presented a revised FY2026 budget that incorporates the latest TISA number and discussed enrollment fluctuations (staff cited an approximate district enrollment near 1,705 and noted a decline of about 30 students year‑to‑year in one measure). Staff said the budget will be taken to the regular meeting on May 15 if the board approves it at that session; any additions tied to accepting state bonus funds would require a FY2026 budget amendment.

- Financial items and bids: approval of the athletic trainer services bid (one‑year bid for $32,000 for 2025–26), review of the district financial report (staff said the balance file would be sent to board members), and a quoted rooftop HVAC unit for cafeteria spaces at Kenyon County Elementary and Middle School for $37,003.87 (packet quote). Staff noted the roofing/HVAC quote will be paid from an identified district funding source and that more details are in the packet.

- Participation in federal programs: staff presented standard annual participation approvals (Title I, Title II and other federal programs) for the coming year.

The workshop discussion reviewed the items but did not record formal votes on the listed motions; staff indicated most items will appear on the upcoming regular meeting agenda for formal action and recordation of votes.
