New School Board member appointed in Greene County

The Greene County Commission appointed George Frye to the school board seat vacated by Tom Cobble last month. He will hold the District 2 seat for the remainder of Cobble’s term, which ends Aug. 31. Over a 41 year career, Frye has worked as a teacher, football coach, and principal at Chuckey-Doak High School. C obble resigned in April, citing declining health in his resignation letter, but not mentioning that the TBI was investigating allegations against him. Earlier this month, Cobble pleaded guilty to official misconduct after engaging in “untoward activity” with students, according to District Attorney Dan Armstrong.
