Welcome to Carver Road Middle School – Home of Scholars and Champions!

I am honored to begin my 26th year in education and to continue serving as principal of Carver Road Middle School! It is a joy to lead such a dynamic school that is committed to academic excellence, leadership development, and student success. Our dedicated teachers and staff work tirelessly to provide high-instruction, build meaningful relationships, and create opportunities for students to grow as leaders and learners. 

Throughout my career, I’ve had the privilege of working in both middle and high school settings in various roles—teacher, graduation coach, instructional coach, assistant principal, and principal. My journey began in Monroe County Schools, and for 13 years, I served as a high school administrator. I am proud to have been recognized as a Middle School Teacher of the Year and a finalist for the GASSP Assistant Principal of the Year. I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Middle Grades Education and a Specialist degree in Educational Leadership from Georgia College and State University, as well as a Master’s in Curriculum and Technology from the University of Phoenix. 

Here at Carver Road Middle School, we are proudly:

• A Leader in Me School Lighthouse Certified School

• Home to state competitors in the Social Studies Fair, Spelling Bee, and 4-H District Project Achievement

• District Champions in both Football (3rd year in a row)

• District Champions in Track and Field

Let’s work together to make this school year our best yet. I look forward to partnering with each of you as we soar to new heights!

With 2185 Pride,
