When the weekend arrives, many Upper Cumberland neighbors hit the road for The Green Market – a downtown Cookeville event every weekend.

TEA President Beth Brown discusses Governor Lee’s Education Savings Account Plan

The idea of vouchers took a step toward approval in the Tennessee Legislature this week. Governor Bill Lee’s Education Savings Account Plan received a 20-13 vote approval in the Tennessee Senate. Education Savings Accounts, or vouchers as they are more often called, provide parents with public money. Most often, the vouchers can be spent on private school education, but sometimes voucher recipients can use the money to fund supplies or educational services. The Tennessee Education Association, which represents teachers, opposes the voucher idea. Beth Brown is TEA President, and a teacher herself in Grundy County.

Attorneys Dawn Fry & Tecia Puckett Pryor talk developmental disabilities & jobs.

Over the next few weeks, hundreds of Walmart greeters nationwide will lose their jobs as the company retools a position that dates back to the origins of Walmart. Some job advocates have worried that the move could adversely affect men and women with disabilities who hold many of the greeter positions at stores. On the other hand, other advocates say today’s working environment for those with disabilities continues to expand far beyond jobs like a greeter. For an overview, we turn to two who represent the Upper Cumberland on Tennessee’s Council on Developmental Disabilities. Dawn Fry is a Cookeville attorney. Smithville attorney, Tecia Puckett Pryor, chairs the Council.
