State Honors Keele for Work at SES

At its meeting on Oct. 14, the Franklin County school board recognized volunteer Karen Keele of Sewanee. Rebecca Sharber, director of schools, presented Keele with the award.


Keele, a volunteer at Sewanee Elementary, was selected as the South Central Volunteer of the Year by the Tennessee School Board Association. In May, she was nominated for a school volunteer recognition award. Keele organizes a tutorial-enrichment program matching retired citizens with students who need extra academic help at SES. As the statewide award winner, she received a $1,000 grant to the public school of her choice, plus a plaque.
