The Knox County Board of Education approved a renewal charter agreement with Emerald Academy through June 30, 2035, under board resolution 25001 dated Jan. 9, 2025.

The motion to approve was moved by Miss Christie and seconded by Mister Triplett. Miss Bikes indicated she would "pass" rather than vote for or against, noting there were matters in the review that concerned her. The clerk conducted a roll call and recorded five yes votes and four pass votes; the clerk stated "Motion carries."

The renewal extends the charter under the terms listed in the board packet and as referenced by the resolution number on the agenda. The transcript records no additional substantive discussion in the public meeting about the charter conditions.
