In a totally unpredicted move, the Knox County Custodians found that they have a home and have a family in the Knox County School System. Five School Board Members rejected Superintendent Dr. James McIntyre’s recommendation to outsource the custodians to SSC / Premiere.
School Board Members Indya Kincannon, Cindy Buttry, Kim Sepesi, Mike McMillan and Pam Trainor casting votes in favor of keeping the custodians in house. School Board Members Gloria Deathridge, Lynn Fugate, Karen Carson and Chairman Thomas Deakins voting for the Superintendent recommendation were left on the non prevailing side. It was not predicted to end this way. But tonight, the little guy found a home.
