A chapter of LaRue County history will close at the end of this month. Judge-Executive Tommy Turner announced Tuesday morning that he will be retiring at the end of August, bringing his 34-year run as the county’s leader to a close.
Turner says Governor Beshear will appoint a replacement to serve until the next election, with one of the magistrate to serve in between retirement and appointment, if needed.
Parents and students of Hardin County Schools will know later today what course of action the district will take with the beginning of the school year.
The Board of Education will meet tonight in a special called meeting to discuss whether or not to begin school as planned or to begin the year with NTI on August 24th. On Monday, Governor Beshear had only made a recommendation to postpone in-person instruction, not a mandate.
The virtual meeting can be viewed tonight at 6 p.m., and can be viewed on the Hardin County Schools website.
