Superintendent to describe the state of school district

DeKalb County Superintendent Cheryl Atkinson will give a state of the school district address Thursday.

Atkinson, in office since late last year, has been studying an overhaul of the administrative organization chart and other staffing changes. She's also looking to overhaul teaching with her "excellence in education" plan.

She is scheduled to speak at 8 a.m. at the Courtyard by Marriott in downtown Decatur, said her spokesman, Walter Woods.
