CLINTON, Tenn. Tens of thousands of Tennessee teachers will become eligible for the COVID-19 vaccination Monday, and school districts are beginning to implement plans to get their staff shots.
Starting Monday, East Tennessee Children’s Hospital will begin making the COVID-19 vaccine available for Knox County Schools employees, including teachers.
The school system will prioritize which employees go first, according to the hospital.
This sign-up is not open to the general public.
In Anderson County, the school district will accept, prepare and administer the vaccine itself.
