The recent reclassification of positions announced earlier this week has created opportunities for other staff to assume new positions in the Oak Ridge Schools, including at Robertsville Middle School and Secret City Academy, a press release said.

  • A vacancy will be posted immediately to fill the open Oak Ridge High School assistant principal position.
