August 2025
Dear Knox County Public Schools Community,
As we prepare to begin a new school year on Monday, August 11, 2025, I want to take a moment to warmly welcome all our new and returning students, staff, and families to the Knox County Public Schools family.
We are excited for the opportunities that lie ahead and look forward to another year of growth, learning, and success. In the Knox County Public Schools, we are committed to fostering a positive, inclusive, and challenging educational environment where every student can Believe, Achieve, and Succeed.
Together, we will continue building on the strong foundation of academic excellence and community support that defines our district. I encourage everyone to start the year with enthusiasm, determination, and a shared commitment to making this our best year yet.
Let’s make 2025–2026 a remarkable school year! #kcpsTOP10
Sincerely,
Jeremy Ledford
Superintendent
Knox County Public Schools
