Dr. Cash comes to the district most recently from Union University where she served as the assistant dean of graduate education, and brings a broad range of experience to her new position. Director Mike Davis said, “She will provide a great deal of expertise in developing a more rigorous curriculum for the children enrolled in our school system and will be a tremendous asset to the entire school district.” Cash will assume her new responsibilities beginning Wednesday, July 3, 2013″ the school release said.

You may remember Cash as a candidate to replace Dan Whitlow as the Dir of R.C. Schools. I can only guess that school officials got a good look at Cash’s credentials during the interview process for Dan’s job and liked what they saw.
