April School News

Metro Nashville Public Schools was granted a waiver from the Tennessee Department of Education for snow days that we took during the rough snow and ice storms last month.  View this article for details.

You may recall the McGavock High School Baseball concession stand burned down last year in an arson attack and then the clubhouse was ransacked last month.  A strong community came through in helping the baseball boosters replace the concession stand.  They can use our continued support.  If you’d like to help the team and booster club, checks can be made to McGavock Baseball Bullpen and sent to the school at 3150 McGavock Pike, Nashville, TN 37214.  You can also follow the efforts of the booster club via Facebook here.
