	The school board hired Jason Manuel as the district's first superintendent. The district was named one of twelve "Exemplary Districts" in Tennessee. In 2015, two of its schools performed in the top 15% for performance on standardized tests, and the district as a whole earned the highest ACT average for the entire State of Tennessee in its first and second years (consecutively). Manuel and his staff deliver frequent presentations across the State as to how the District has pulled off such successes in such a short time.
