Where to check Johnson County school calendar PDFs, holidays and half days
Use the official Open District Calendar page for school-year calendar PDFs. The calendar page links the 2025-26 Calendar, 2026-27 Calendar, and 2027-28 Calendar. This is the safest official starting point for first day of school, breaks, holidays, teacher workdays, half days, parent conferences, and last day planning.
The 2025-26 calendar PDF says the first day of school is August 4, 2025, listed as a half day. It lists August 29-September 1 for Labor Day break, October 13-17 for Fall Break, November 11 for Veterans Day with no school, November 26-28 for Thanksgiving Holiday, December 22-January 2 for Christmas Holiday, January 6 for students returning full day, April 3-6 for Good Friday/Easter Holiday, and May 18, 2026 as the last day of school, listed as a half day.

Johnson County BOE office address, phone and visit planning
The Johnson County Board of Education main office is listed at 211 North Church Street, Mountain City, TN 37683. The official website footer lists the main phone number as 423-727-2640. This is the district-level contact point for central office routing, board office direction, central administration, and general school system questions.
The central office is not the right destination for every school task. If your question is about attendance, a classroom issue, a teacher, school pickup, a student schedule, sports practice, a local event, or school-specific paperwork, the individual school office is usually the faster first contact.
Call before visiting. Board meetings, summer hours, holidays, central office closures, weather, staff schedules, and school-year rollover can affect office access. A board agenda from 2025 noted summer hours running Monday-Friday from 7:30 a.m. to 4:45 p.m. during a specific summer period, but that should not be treated as a permanent year-round office schedule.
✅ Contact central office for
District routing, board office questions, supervisor contacts, public information, calendar direction, and department help.
🏫 Contact the school for
Attendance, teachers, pickup changes, school-level events, classroom issues, and local school questions.
🧾 Use forms page for
Student handbooks, Skyward, lunch menus, transcript requests, parent links, and district forms.
📞 Call before visiting
Use 423-727-2640 before going to the office, especially during breaks or summer hours.
Central office staff, supervisors and department contacts
The official Central Office page lists district leadership and department staff. It lists Dr. Mischelle Simcox as Director of Schools. It also lists Angie Wills for K-6 curriculum and federal programs, Mark Hagaman for 7-12 curriculum and textbooks, Dr. Emogene South for Special Education, Herbie Adams for CTE and Safety, Leon Henley for evaluation, student services, and maintenance, Jessie Laing for student management, civil rights, and virtual learning, and Elijah Osborne for attendance, testing, homebound, and homeschool coordination.
The page also lists Head Start / Pre-K coordination, elementary instructional coaching, homebound teaching, school psychology, school system health and nursing, ESL and migrant coordination, administrative support, coordinated school health, finance, personnel, board secretary, purchasing, school nutrition, technology, transportation, maintenance, and custodial contacts.
Use this page when the issue is department-specific. For example, transportation and maintenance questions are different from school nutrition questions, civil rights questions, testing questions, special education questions, or finance questions. Calling the right department saves time.

Johnson County BOE members, monthly meetings and audience participation
The official Open Board of Education page says the Johnson County Department of Education meets monthly on the second Thursday of each month to discuss school-related business. It says meetings begin at 6:00 p.m. in the board room located at the Johnson County Schools Central Offices.
The page also says the public is always invited to attend, but anyone who wishes to discuss a matter before the Board must fill out and submit an audience participation form before the board meeting. That detail matters. Do not assume that arriving at a meeting is enough to speak.
The official page lists board members as Mr. Kevin Long, Mr. Chad Greever, Mr. Russell Robinson, Mrs. Holly Brown, and Mr. Ed Walker. Board membership, emails, and roles can change, so verify the current official board page before sending a message, quoting a member, or publishing contact details.

Board minutes, policy manual and strategic plan links
The Board of Education page links Open Board Minutes, Open Board Policy, and a Strategic 5 Year Plan 2026-2030. Use these official resources for past meeting records, policy language, and district planning information.
The Board Minutes page organizes meeting documents by year. It includes 2026, 2025, 2024, and earlier board meeting entries, including regular meetings, work sessions, called meetings, and special called meetings. If a parent or resident needs to confirm what the Board approved, minutes are usually safer than social posts or summaries.
The Board Policy page is hosted through the Tennessee School Boards Association policy manual. Use the policy manual for formal policy language, but remember that policies may be updated. For a high-stakes issue, verify the current policy and contact the district when needed.

Open enrollment, zone transfer application and returning student registration
The district’s open enrollment news post for the 2025-2026 school year says Tennessee law requires the district to post the number of spaces available in each school by grade during the open enrollment period. It says a parent or guardian may request that a child attend a school within the district other than the school to which the child is zoned.
For the 2025-2026 school year, the post says the open enrollment period runs from July 1, 2025 to August 1, 2025. It says applications must be turned into Central Office at 211 North Church Street, Mountain City, from 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM, Monday-Friday during that open enrollment period.
The post says slots will be filled on a first come, first served basis, and parents will be notified if accepted or denied. Once accepted, the student must provide their own transportation to and from school. The student must maintain satisfactory attendance, behavior, and effort to remain in the new school.
The Forms & Links page also links Skyward Parents and Student Login and Returning Student Registration when available. Because registration windows are time-sensitive, always check the current year and official link before assuming the same dates apply.

Use Skyward for district-linked student management and family access workflows. Parents should open Skyward only from the district website or the official district link, not from search ads or random login pages. Before entering a username, password, student ID, medical detail, or contact information, confirm that the link comes from the official Johnson County Schools site.

Important parent-facing links include the Student – Parent Handbook 2025-26, Technology Responsible Use Policy, TCAP review resources, TCAP Family Portal link from the main navigation, Skyward login, lunch menus, transcript request link, and parent resources.
Because forms can change by school year, do not reuse an older handbook, accident form, health screening opt-out, physical form, travel form, or field trip form without confirming the current page.
📘 Handbook
The Forms & Links page includes the Student – Parent Handbook 2025-26 and Spanish version.
💻 Technology policy

Menus can change because of supply issues, weather, school closures, nutrition program changes, or school-specific scheduling. Before planning for allergies, medical needs, or lunch purchases, confirm with the school or district nutrition contact listed through the central office page.

Transcripts, records and privacy-safe request steps
The Forms & Links page includes a Transcripts and Records section linking to “Request and purchase a copy of your Transcripts.” Because transcript and records workflows may involve payment, identity verification, student history, and private education records, start from the official Forms & Links page instead of typing private information into a random transcript website.
If a current student needs school-level records, start with the student’s school office. If a former student needs a transcript, use the official district-linked transcript request route. If a parent needs special education records, health forms, or attendance documents, contact the appropriate school or central office department before submitting private files.
🎓 Transcript requests
Use the official transcript request link from the district Forms & Links page.
🏫 Current students
For school-level records, contact the student’s school office first.
