The district reported enrollment figures of 654 students at the elementary school (14 fewer than last year), 329 at the middle school (2 fewer) and 385 at the high school (11 more), for a total reported enrollment of 1,368 students (about five fewer than the same time last year). Administrators said overall enrollment has been stable.

Employment notifications in the meeting packet included hires and resignations: Courtney Haynes hired as head basketball coach; Madison McClatchy (elementary teacher); Jeanette Reese hired as middle-school custodian; Shelby Petty hired as middle-school basketball coach; David Cather resigned as head baseball coach but plans to remain with the team in an assistant/facilities role; and Mildred Harper resigned as a cook (location specified as high school in the packet). Several retirements were also noted in the packet.

On construction, the district provided an update on a project referred to in the packet as the \"veil house\": subgrade plumbing work was completed and more than half of the flooring had been poured; mezzanine work was poured. The board noted some concrete pours are delayed because the contractor must move crews and that a set of steps will be removed and rebuilt at the construction manager's expense.

Administrators also said the district will repurpose Chromebooks for graduating seniors who complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) or an application to a postsecondary institution; the district described this as a graduation gift intended to help students who leave home for college without a device. The district said it expects state TCAP score delivery in mid-to-late May and will mail report cards after scores are integrated with grades.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","2025 May Board Meeting","oneSentenceSummary","Board packet included employment notifications, steady district enrollment figures and construction updates on a school project; administrators also said seniors who complete FAFSA or college applications will receive repurposed Chromebooks.","taxTitle","Trousdale County, School Districts, Tennessee","taxId",79559,"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},6560798,"Trousdale County schools celebrate seniors, report high test completion and fall athletics commitments",2027,829000,2856000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3307979-bb1280d41cb62abdddfa3ffe9ac2c698&start=829&end=2856","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3307979-bb1280d41cb62abdddfa3ffe9ac2c698/thumbnail_829000.jpg","/articles/6560798/Tennessee/Trousdale-County-schools-celebrate-seniors-report-high-test-completion-and-fall-athletics-commitments","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6560798-2ed85cc1f39f6b1da40928b9aa927783/orig.mp4?Expires=1771102085&Signature=kDfkdPDKIQD42pYAvnJqJTKzujA22Yuvdl-KUC5-zSc-X2lZ2XYw6l88ih2SstbNxunF0VDlCqP6pTWBI2Uq4hljWx7rGPmcT1qA5GCh6~056CQ7fi125m96kFE9vbhgR~Hvq1eH7~6NQYuBDVkseRFqfM7w2na8TQkJMdcgDxqGU9vZhmQ3tixrKpm4bXfTU-bpoKQkVl7c~xGxY5eKxLk9SmxB6mjni726ebV~RIEFkJtuzd6aax5jVuovPsmlmtAeiL2jcFajUqxad75K9OvJZs~cEtUIGdh8ZtLNa6XzuUjwovAVIuWcFXMJBWg271ezNNBwaCxxksNgJkO6BQ__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","School administrators told the Trousdale County Board of Education that the district is wrapping an event-heavy school year with commencement activities, testing and extracurricular signings.

High-school principal Mister McCall told the board the graduating class of 2025 includes roughly 92'93 seniors, with senior night and graduation planned at the football stadium (weather permitting). McCall described a schedule of senior events this week: senior lunch, senior day and an off-site trip to Dollywood for seniors, plus multiple field and practice events leading to graduation.

Administrators reported strong assessment participation: nearly 100% of students completed TCAP testing and the district expects state test results in mid-to-late May. The high school also administered certified nursing assistant (CNA) exams: 20 students passed and one student missed by one point and was scheduled to retake the exam. Miss McCall was credited with administering the CNA program.

Athletics and college signings were highlighted. Several students signed to play at the next level: Janae Pontay (basketball at Roanoke State), Kelly Dunn (softball at Bethel) and other student-athletes with commitments to Pellissippi (volleyball and basketball) and Roman/Roanoke State (as reported in the meeting). Coaches and administrators praised the students and families.

Elementary and middle principals described end-of-year activities including field week, a first-responders day with fire and EMS vehicles, grade-level reward days and a 'glow party' for younger students. They also noted rising costs and insurance requirements for vendors such as bounce-house providers, which limits some event options.

Board members and administrators emphasized staff and parent involvement in events and thanked PTO volunteers and community sponsors for supporting gifts and celebrations.","Principals reported graduation plans for 92'93 seniors, near-complete TCAP participation, CNA test results and multiple student athletic signings as the district closes the school year.",{"_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},6560801,"Trousdale County Board approves food-service and summer-learning budgets and hires TSBA to run superintendent search",2651,745000,3396000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3307979-bb1280d41cb62abdddfa3ffe9ac2c698&start=745&end=3396","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3307979-bb1280d41cb62abdddfa3ffe9ac2c698/thumbnail_745000.jpg","/articles/6560801/Tennessee/Trousdale-County-Board-approves-food-service-and-summer-learning-budgets-and-hires-TSBA-to-run-superintendent-search","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6560801-26caffb8d532247938ee5c74eee811cc/orig.mp4?Expires=1771102085&Signature=cHQmL8zcsOhekknISPCMmsEPcsldSRnX7p5zZNA2EgBMHwbZp34bLCu5lU5r16Ma6rv~llVQf6-avmH~6fociMEJ0VYJgidv8HaUlALDuZRI81si5SMlSQMIkhLZ0JGYYIrCjaNrRC-BoT29DRNPbPkO6REG~hmU0fZ1wqwA~5D0X9PE5rSRhMW-5AO8lAVPopBBPJzeQUtY3yrVPbsGo5lMyGw8~NQf2-yXnyMLVwpwwQ0FF7LjNGfhayPxkMrcbSnk7jfX9176L7EAAklzopM294UiOOCcEtTdeSTxkE7zCQRJ9b6PstifZWnsm1ryynuxA-4s936zxEyGH3JPUQ__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Trousdale County Board of Education unanimously approved three administrative measures at its May meeting: the fiscal-year 2026 food-service budget, the summer learning camp budget and a $3,000 contract with the Tennessee School Boards Association (TSBA) to run the district's superintendent search under TSBA's Plan 1.

Board members discussed the food-service budget as a purchasing framework; actual product bids will be presented next month. Board members said Trousdale participates in a multi-county bid consortium to get better prices rather than bidding alone. The board approved the budget on a motion by Robbie Atwood, seconded by Chris Woodard.

The board then approved the summer learning camp budget, which uses state funds (the district noted that federal ESSER stimulus funds are no longer available). Summer learning camp is scheduled Monday through Friday for 20 days in June; program hours are 8:00 a.m. to 1:30 p.m., with after-school care from 1:30 p.m. to 4:30 p.m. The summer program budget was moved by Rachel (last name not specified) and seconded by Robbie Atwood.

Separately, the board voted to hire TSBA to manage the superintendent search for a $3,000 fee and directed TSBA to run the application portal and compile applicant packets for the board at the close of the application window. Board members said using TSBA would centralize receipt and packaging of applications and remove that administrative burden from district staff. The motion to hire TSBA (supporting Plan 1) passed unanimously after a motion by Mister Atwood and a second by Mister Woodard.

Votes at a glance:
- Motion: Approve tonight's agenda. Moved by Diana; seconded by Chris. Outcome: Passed unanimously.
- Motion: Approve consent agenda. Moved by Rachel; seconded by Chris. Outcome: Passed unanimously.

- Motion: Hire TSBA to run superintendent search under TSBA Plan 1 for a $3,000 fee. Moved by Robbie Atwood (amended to specify Plan 1); seconded by Chris Woodard. Outcome: Passed unanimously.

Board members repeatedly emphasized that application materials gathered through TSBA will be subject to open-records rules and will be provided to the board as a packet after the application window closes. The board did not record individual roll-call vote counts in the minutes, and each item passed on voice votes recorded as unanimous \"aye.\"","The Trousdale County Board of Education unanimously approved the fiscal-year food-service budget and the summer learning camp budget and voted to hire the Tennessee School Boards Association (TSBA) to run the district's superintendent search under TSBA's \"Plan 1.\"","actionData","errors"]
