“The Knox County Museum of Education is for everyone who ever attended a Knox County or Knox City School System, worked at one of our schools, had relatives or friends who did the same.
The Museum was founded in September of 2005, by a group of retired educators and personnel who wanted there to be a place where they could find information about where they went to school, worked and all the wonderful people they had known.
Today, that vision remains true.
This is a Museum for all of us. Regardless of who you are or were. It’s a place where “You can take a walk down memory lane.”
And find old friends, relatives, teachers, students, administrators, coaches, and hope reconnect and renew with our shared school experience.
Come visit and maybe, just maybe join us here at the Museum.
