From finding a love for reading to gaining the confidence to lead, our teachers at Blount County Schools do so much more than follow a lesson plan. They empower our students to achieve excellence every single day.
In this special video, Director Justin Ridge, Chief of Operations Courtney Whitehead, and our district leaders share how their former teachers shaped who they are today. Watch here: https://youtu.be/aRJQTSy9VeI
