Franklin County Picks New Superintendent

Franklin County Public Schools has a new superintendent after the Board of Education voted unanimously Tuesday to hire local educator Chrissy Jones for the district’s top leadership role. “I’m just really going to get in there and get my nose to the grindstone,” she said after the official announcement, attended by Franklin County principals, teachers and Jones’ friends and family, who applauded and gave her a standing ovation.
