Rutherford County Schools is a school district based in Murfreesboro, Tennessee, United States. It serves Rutherford County, Tennessee—excluding pre-kindergarten through 6th grade in Murfreesboro itself, which is served by the Murfreesboro City Schools system.
The district gained national attention during the COVID-19 pandemic when local high school student Grady Knox was harassed by district meeting attendees after explaining that his grandmother had died due to the lack of mask-wearing in local schools.[2][3] Outgoing school board chairman Coy Young subsequently apologized, stating his "regret the young man was treated the way he was."[4]
