The Germantown Board of Mayor and Aldermen appointed Heather Fisher to Position 2 on the school board.
Fisher will fill the vacancy on the Germantown Municipal School District board created by Scotty Hendricks Jr., who left the city due to his wife taking a position outside of Tennessee. Hendricks was appointed to Position 2 after Daniel Chatham stepped down in early 2025 following his decision to enroll his children in private school.
The Board of Mayor and Aldermen unanimously appointed Fisher after interviewing three of six people who submitted applications. She begins Tuesday as the Germantown school board meets less than 24 hours after she was named to the position.
