School counselors and student support staff from across Roane County Schools came together this morning for a joint professional development session at the new TCAT Harriman campus.
A special thank you to TCAT Harriman for hosting us and providing a tour of the beautiful new facility at the conclusion of today’s session. We appreciate the opportunity to learn together, strengthen collaboration, and continue building partnerships that support the success and well-being of our students.
We look forward to another great school year serving the students and families of Roane County!






Roane County Schools’ Coordinated School Health was excited to welcome Derek Zachary, OPEN National Trainer, for the K-12 Physical Education Professional Development Day at RMS.
PE teachers from across the district explored best practices, cooperative games, skill development, and engaging instructional strategies designed to promote student success and keep students active and learning.
It was a fantastic day of collaboration, professional growth, and hands-on learning as our PE teachers prepare for an outstanding school year. Thank you, Derek, for sharing your expertise and helping equip our educators with new ideas to bring back to their classrooms!




We’re proud to celebrate the positive trends we’re seeing in our current proficiency scores!
Proficiency measures how many students are performing at or above grade-level expectations on Tennessee’s state assessments. These results reflect the knowledge and skills students have demonstrated and are one important measure of academic achievement.
While the state has not yet released the complete set of data, the results available so far reflect the hard work, dedication, and commitment of so many people across Roane County Schools.
These proficiency gains are a reflection of what can happen when educators, students, and families work together with a shared commitment to student success. We are proud of the progress we’ve made and look forward to celebrating even more as the remaining data is released.

Our Coordinated School Health team had a wonderful time at KES Kindergarten Family Night!
Families learned about the importance of “Less Screening, More Reading,” why attendance matters, and the Book Buddy initiative. Parents also received practical tips and strategies to help their kindergarteners build healthy habits, strengthen early literacy skills, and prepare for a successful school year.
Thank you to everyone who stopped by the Coordinated School Health table. The team looks forward to partnering with families throughout the year to support student success!




Yesterday, we had the opportunity to welcome and train an amazing group of new substitute teachers as they prepare for the upcoming school year!
Substitutes play an important role in supporting our schools and helping ensure students continue learning when teachers are away. We are grateful for each person who has chosen to serve our students and staff.
Interested in making a difference in Roane County Schools? We’re still hiring substitute teachers! Join our team and enjoy a flexible schedule while making a positive impact in the lives of students.
