Good afternoon! McMinn County Schools and Offices will return to a regular schedule on Wednesday, January 28. With very cold temperatures expected in the morning, we encourage families to dress students warmly. We appreciate your patience and look forward to welcoming everyone back.
Thanks to a grant from the Tennessee Arts Commission, Calhoun's K–6 students enjoyed a live performance by Bright Star Theatre, a nationally touring professional theatre company, on January 20. The interactive program brought the story of Jackie Robinson to life.
Students learned that Jackie Robinson—Number 42—was the first Black Major League Baseball player, served in the military during World War II, and explained his role in ending segregation. It was an inspiring and meaningful experience for our students!
Thank you to all those making this possible for our students! #allinformcminncountyschools
