An early look at open enrollment figures shows that Knoxville Community School District is moving in the right direction.

That’s what Superintendent Cassi Murra told the Knoxville School Board Monday. She says residential enrollment is up in the district, which helps with basic funding. The enrollment numbers for the district will be finalized today.

Also on Monday, the school board set a public hearing date for Monday, October 27th, at 5pm to discuss an early start calendar, reviewed reports for the elementary and middle schools, and viewed a presentation by the science club of their trip last summer, among other items.
