Today Knox County Schools announced the appointment of West High School Principal Sallee Reynolds as the Principal of Hardin Valley High School. It is interesting to note that applications were taken for the position. The assumption is that interviews were conducted. We probably should not assume anything. However, Mrs. Reynolds did not apply, leaving one to conclude that she was satisfied with her position at West High School.
It is a disservice to interested applicants for them to apply for a position especially as public as the process turned out to be. The five applicants letters and resumes were posted on the Knoxville News-Sentinel website.
It is similar to the 70 plus persons applying for the 8 positions on County Commission and then individuals that became Appointed Commissioners were appointed without submitting themselves through a public process.
