You may have seen the billboards around the county touting the success of Weakley County Schools, ranked 6th in the state for education according to the County Profiles of Child Wellbeing in Tennessee, an annual report published by the Tennessee Commission on Children and Youth. This ranking is no accident.

As schools across the nation grappled with the challenges of reopening after the COVID-19 pandemic, Weakley County Schools used Elementary and Secondary School Emergency Relief (ESSER) funds to improve facilities, address learning loss, and enhance educational opportunities. As the final phase of the three-part ESSER grant concludes, the district looks back on the progress made thanks to the $9.3 million received over the past three years.
