Henderson County Schools pauses to reflect on the importance of Black History Month.
Black History Month provides an opportunity to recognize and honor the achievements, resilience, leadership, and lasting contributions of Black Americans — in our nation, across Tennessee, and here in our own community. We are grateful for the opportunity to learn, to listen, and to grow together. At each of our Henderson County Schools, we remain committed to ensuring every student feels seen, valued, and empowered to make a difference.

Schools will reopen on Monday, February 9, and we will return to a full week (Monday - Friday) of school for students beginning that day.
