Kentucky Education Commissioner Terry Holliday will act as a temporary, unpaid employee of the Murray Independent school system on Wednesday, January 11.The school district was the winner of the “Extra Holliday” item offered by the Kentucky School Public Relations Association (KYSPRA) during a silent auction at its Fall Institute last September. The win entitled the school district to Commissioner Holliday’s presence for an entire day, with an agenda of district personnel’s choosing.
Murray Independent Superintendent Bob Rogers and school leaders established a day-long itinerary that includes stints at the preschool and elementary, middle and high schools in the district.
Holliday’s activities will include bus duty, music class, lunch with 6th graders and a district leadership team meeting.
“I’m very excited about this opportunity,” said Holliday. “One of my goals as commissioner is to visit every school district in the state. These visits keep me connected to the real work happening in our schools, and my day at Murray Independent will provide valuable insights.”
Media outlet representatives are invited to a forum at Murray Elementary from 7:30 to 8 a.m. CT on Jan. 11. Holliday will be on hand to answer questions and as a special guest on Tiger Cub News, the school’s news program. Holliday also will be available at 4:30 p.m. CT at the Murray Board Office to meet with media representatives.
