Paris, TN – The Henry County, Tennessee Board of Education has named its new director of schools. Sam Miles of Springfield garnered a majority of board member's votes last week and contract negotiations are expected to begin soon. The Paris Post Intelligencer reports Miles is currently an educational consultant with the Tennessee Exemplary Educators Program and has more than 35 years of teaching and administration experience. If Miles agrees to take the post, it will put an end to the board's 7-month candidate search.
