With a new year comes a new Superintendent Spotlight! For January 2018, the TOSS Superintendent Spotlight is Dr. Leah Rice Watkins who is currently in her second year as the Director of Schools in Roane County.
There are a lot of exciting things happening in Roane County Schools right now, but just to name a few:
- 1:World technology implementation
- Transition to a Google District
- Amazing leadership team
- Recognition as an Exemplary School District
- Improvement from a Level 1 in Literacy to a Level 5 in Literacy
When asked what her favorite part of her job is, Dr. Watkins said, "Every day brings new challenges! I love the pace and the learning curve present with this roll. I also have had the opportunity to meet so many amazing people through the system and county."
