Congratulations to Lexington High School and Beaver Elementary School for being named Level 5 schools in Henderson County!
To celebrate this outstanding achievement, Mr. Beecham had a cake delivered to the staff at each school today during lunch as a small token of appreciation for their hard work and dedication.
In Tennessee, a Level 5 school represents the highest rating a school can receive on the state’s growth model. It means that students are making more than expected academic progress, reflecting the commitment of teachers, staff, and administrators to providing excellent instruction and support for all learners.

Henderson County School Board Recognizes Teachers Receiving Tenure
The Henderson County School Board held its regular monthly meeting last week at South Side Elementary. During the meeting, a group of teachers were recognized for earning tenure.
In Tennessee, earning tenure is a significant milestone for educators. To qualify, a teacher must hold the appropriate degree or licensure, have a valid teaching license, complete five years (45 months) of probationary service (with the last two years in a regular teaching role), and earn “Above Expectations” or “Significantly Above Expectations” ratings in each of the final two probationary years. The teacher must also be re-employed by the director of schools. Tenure is granted only after the director recommends it and the local board of education votes to approve.
The following teachers were awarded tenure for the 2025/2026 school year:
Bargerton Elementary: Pamela Wafler
Beaver Elementary: Kimberly Tilley
Pin Oak Elementary: Taylor Linton
Scotts Hill Elementary: Kimberly Snyder
South Haven Elementary: Destiny Burke
Westover Elementary: Hannah McMinn & Angela Christy Evans
Lexington High School: Lindsey Lovins & Cary Bivens
Scotts Hill High School: Christopher Bridges & Alita Taylor Rogers
The Henderson County School Board congratulates these teachers for their dedication and commitment to students and celebrates this significant professional achievement.

Why School Attendance Matters
Showing up each day makes a difference! Regular school attendance is one of the strongest predictors of student success, both in the classroom and later in life. When students attend school consistently, they build strong learning habits, develop critical social skills, and stay on track academically.
Missing just a few days here and there can quickly add up. Research shows that students who are chronically absent—missing 10% or more of the school year—are more likely to fall behind in reading and math, struggle to stay engaged, and face greater challenges graduating on time.
Good attendance also prepares students for the future. Being present and on time teaches responsibility, commitment, and time management—skills that post-secondary schools and employers value highly.
Parents and guardians play a critical role in supporting attendance. Encouraging routines, scheduling appointments outside of school hours, and communicating with teachers when challenges arise can all help keep students in class and learning.
At Henderson County Schools, we are committed to helping every student thrive. By making school attendance a top priority, families and schools can work together to give our children the best chance at success—today and in the future.

Congratulations to the Henderson County Middle School Tennis Program, which started its season this weekend. They had to play a doubleheader to kick things off against USJ and TCA. The boys and girls came up short in some very good tennis against USJ. The boys lost 1-2, and the girls lost 1-3. They both turned it around in their second match with TCA. The boys won 2-1, and the girls won 2-0, playing very well and improving throughout the morning. We are all very proud of not only how well they played but also how they represented Henderson County.
