CLAIBORNE COUNTY, Tenn. — Claiborne County Schools said Director of Schools Dr. Linda Keck will retire on Oct. 31.
A district human resources administrator said Keck "has chosen to retire."
The district recently assigned a new head football coach at Claiborne High School after it released former coach Nathan Medlin from his duties at the end of August.
Claiborne County Schools is the latest to start the search for a new director of schools/superintendent after districts scrambled to fill positions before the 2022-23 school year.
Union County Schools had to search for a new candidate after Superintendent Dr. Jimmy Carter abruptly resigned during a school board meeting in June. He later apologized and agreed to work a 120-day contract to help transition a new director of schools into the position.
