I am Jocelyn M. Harrington, one of the new Assistant Principals at
Hightower Elementary School.
I am very excited to be joining the Hightower family and look forward to getting to know each of you a little better every day.
The past few weeks have been wonderful, and the students here are outstanding!
My transition to Hightower has been very welcoming.
I appreciate all of the help and smiles from the entire Hightower community over the past two weeks.
Prior to serving as your assistant principal, I spent seven years in classroom and taught first through fifth grades.
My time in the classroom has prepared me well for working with your children.
In addition to my background experience in the classroom, I have a Bachelor of Art degree in Economics from Spelman College. I attended Mercer University for my initial certification in Early Childhood Education, continued on at Mercer to obtain my Master’s degree in Early Childhood Education, and then Specialist’s degree in Educational Leadership.
I can already tell what a special group of teachers, students, and staff members work here. Everyone I come across has told me just how special this school truly is. I look forward to working closely with Ms. George, our principal, to support her work and efforts to continue the record of success Hightower has achieved over the years.
