During the Weakley County School Board meeting on Tuesday, School Director Jeff Cupples proposed the idea of opening a daycare facility for faculty and staff to the Board.
Mr. Cupples said childcare has been an issue for school employees and has been used as an incentive by other school districts to recruit teachers.
Director Cupples listed several options the school system has for starting a daycare including buying an existing facility, renovating an existing room or building, or building a new facility.
School Board members voted in favor to continue with the renovation option, they will move forward with contacting an architect.
