Nolensville museum nets competitive grant from Tennessee State Museum
A Williamson County museum is getting a needed renovation, thanks to the Tennessee State Museum.
The Nolensville Historic School Museum has been announced as the recipient of a $94,815 grant to help with capital maintenance along with improvements, which will be spent on milling and repaving the museum’s parking lot.
Created in 2022, the grant is highly competitive and aims to help smaller museums around the state, officials explained.
This year, the Tennessee State Museum has awarded grants to 99 museums from 45 counties. In the three years the Museum has administered the grant program, it has served museums in 73 counties across the state.
“The Tennessee Capital Improvement Grants continue to support and strengthen the infrastructure of institutions preserving our state and local history and culture,” said Tennessee State Museum Executive Director Ashley Howell. “We are honored to help support the commitment of those institutions to better serve their communities and visitors through collection care and visitor accessibility these last three years.”
Since it was taken over by the Nolensville Historical Society in 2009, the school museum has worked to preserve historic research material of the Nolensville area.
Visitors can view a historic classroom, 1937 kitchen, workshop of historic farm and carpentry tools, displays of local archaeological finds and a host of rotating exhibits.
The building was officially placed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2012.
The Nolensville Historic School Museum is run by a professional part time staff members and volunteers. The space is home to a growing amount of public historic research materials, and visitors can get assistance from staff and volunteers with any genealogy and cemetery research needs.
The gym, cafeteria, and parking lot spaces are available to the public for local community events.
“As Williamson County mayor, I support the preservation of our local cultural heritage,” Rogers Anderson said of the grant.
Historic School Museum Director Michelle Jenkins said she was also appreciative to Williamson County and the state for the grant award because it will make the improvements and maintenance project possible.
The Nolensville Historical Society’s mission is to promote knowledge and awareness of the historical heritage of Nolensville and the surrounding areas, and to promote the preservation of historic sites in and around the Nolensville community.
The Historic School Museum, at 7248 Nolensville Road, is open from 10 a.m.-3 p.m. Tuesday-Friday and 9 a.m.-1 p.m. on Saturday.
The Tennessee Titans have made some improvements throughout the offseason and appear better positioned heading into the draft than they were in 2024, with added depth on both sides of the ball.
Yet, even with the added talent, they still have multiple needs they must continue to address to help both now and in the future, and another solid draft would go a long way in finding a sustainable path forward. Gilberto Manzano of Sports Illustrated looked at the roster and saw some of the same things as he broke down their remaining needs heading into the draft.
Tennessee Titans
Draft needs: RB, WR, edge, S
The running back duo of Tony Pollard and Tyjae Spears hasn’t been a productive one. Cam Ward desperately needs a game-changer at one of the skill positions. Newcomer wideout Wan’Dale Robinson doesn’t exactly fit that bill, but he’ll make life easier for the second-year quarterback.
With Robert Saleh now the head coach in Tennessee, it wouldn’t be a surprise if the Titans used the No. 4 pick on one of the top edge rushers.
There is no doubt that the Titans should add some playmakers in this draft class, and they shouldn’t bank on hitting a dynamic playmaker in the fourth round again. Tennessee could definitely use a premium pick on at least one or possibly two offensive weapons.
Tennessee also must invest in the interior of the offensive line to help Cam Ward and the offense. While it’s true that Pollard and Spears did not blow the doors off the running game, they were also hampered by subpar play along the offensive line for the past two seasons, after line guru Bill Callahan failed to transform the Titans’ line into a consistent unit. It wasn’t until after he and his son Brian Callahan left that the play-calling for the running game took off.
CHICAGO − Iowa State’s star forward Joshua Jefferson is questionable against Tennessee basketball according to the NCAA player availability report released at 6:32 p.m.
The No. 6 Vols (24-11) and No. 2 Cyclones (29-7) play in the Men’s NCAA Tournament Sweet 16 at the United Center on March 27 (10:10 p.m. ET, TBS).
Jefferson sprained his ankle in the opening minutes of Iowa State’s first-round game against Tennessee State. He sat for the remainder of the game and missed the Cyclones’ win over Kentucky on March 22. Iowa State didn’t need the All-Big 12 forward as it generated 20 Wildcat turnovers in its 19-point victory.
Senior Nate Heise started in place of the 6-foot-9 Jefferson. He had 12 points against Kentucky, but senior Tamin Lipsey stepped up with a season-high 26 points and 10 assists.
Jefferson averaged 16.4 points, 7.4 rebounds, 4.8 assists and 1.6 steals and shot 47.1% from the field.
