Gordon County Schools is celebrating the newest class of educators selected for its Aspiring Leaders Program, a year-long initiative designed to strengthen leadership skills and prepare participants for future roles across the district.
The program provides hands-on learning experiences to help educators grow their leadership capacity, equipping them to take on positions such as department chairs, curriculum leaders, learning facilitators, assistant principals, and district administrators.
This year’s participants include:
Front row (left to right): Sylvia Ashley (Ashworth Middle School), Mallory Parris (Tolbert Elementary), Hayley Pollard (Tolbert Elementary), Laramie Rodriguez (Gordon Central High School), Kim Adair (W.L. Swain Elementary), Shelby Santos (Fairmount Elementary), and Megan Wiley (Tolbert Elementary).

“We are proud of these educators who are committed to advancing the mission and vision of Gordon County Schools,” district leaders shared. “Their growth as leaders will make a lasting impact on our students, schools, and community.”
The Aspiring Leaders Program reflects Gordon County Schools’ ongoing investment in professional development and its dedication to cultivating the next generation of school leaders.
