The Jackson County School System Board of Education on Monday appointed a new principal for Maysville Elementary School.
Dr. Katie Warwick has been an educator for more than 20 years and has been with Jackson County Schools since 2016. Warwick currently serves as a curriculum coordinator, according to a press release from the school system.
Warwick has previously been a math instructional specialist, elementary school teacher and gifted teacher.
“Dr. Warwick is a proven leader within the Jackson County School System, who is invested in the students and teachers at Maysville Elementary," Dr. Phillip Brown, incoming superintendent for the school system, said. "I know she is excited to build upon the great work already happening at their school.”
The announcement comes after principal Dr. Michele Archibald was appointed the Director of Elementary Education for the upcoming school year. This appointment created the need for a new principal at the school.
Warwick has a bachelor's, master's and specialist degree from Piedmont College. She earned her Doctorate in Education Leadership from Keiser University in 2014.
“Dr. Archibald has led Maysville Elementary School to be known as amazing Maysville,“ Dr. April Howard, Superintendent of the Jackson County School System, said. “The leadership team and staff have embraced a culture of excellence with an absolute commitment to all children, their families, and the entire Maysville community. As we welcome Dr. Katie Warwick as principal at Maysville Elementary School, we thank Dr. Archibald for her tremendous investment of the heart."
