The Knoxville School Board is off tonight, having cancelled the regularly-scheduled meeting due to a lack of business to discuss.

The board voted at its November 12th meeting to call off the one set for tonight; staff members advised them there was nothing pressing which needed to be addressed.

The next meeting is set for December 10th, and that too will be the only one of the month; the usual second meeting would have fallen on Christmas Eve, and the board concluded there was no need to schedule in a second one.

This will be a slight respite for the board, since there will be a variety of matters coming up after the first of the year.
